1. هَذا اِبن سام وَبنت حام

    شَعبهما اليَوم ذو التِئام

    Here are Shem’s son and Ham’s daughter;

    Their people are united today.

  2. قَد أَظَهرَا في الوَرى اِزدِواجاً

    فَاِمتَزج النور بِالظَلام

    They have made their marriage known to the world,

    So light has mingled with darkness.

  3. وَاِنسلا صبيةً صِغاراً

    سَبعاً يوافين في نِظام

    And they begot little children,

    Seven, coming forth in ordered array.

  4. هُنَّ مَدى الدَهر مُرضِعات

    يَشتَقن رَيّاً إِلى الفِطام

    They are nursing mothers for all time,

    Yearning, sated, for weaning.
