إِذَا أَنِسَتْ بِصُورَتِهِ عُيُونٌ

إِذَا أَنِسَتْ بِصُورَتِهِ عُيُونٌ

وَأَوْحَشَ قَوْمَهُ مِنْهُ السُّكُوتُ

وَأَوْحَشَ قَوْمَهُ مِنْهُ السُّكُوتُ

When eyes find comfort in his likeness,

When eyes are delighted by his image

And his silence leaves his people desolate,

And his silence renders his people lonely

فَإِنَّ لَهُ حَدِيثاً لَيْسَ يُبَلَى

فَإِنَّ لَهُ حَدِيثاً لَيْسَ يُبَلَى

تُحَدِّثُهُ مَآثِرُ لاَ تَفُوتُ

تُحَدِّثُهُ مَآثِرُ لاَ تَفُوتُ

Then his is a tale that never wears away,

He has a tale that does not wither

Recounted by noble deeds that never pass away.

Told by glories that do not pass

سَيَبْقَى الذِّكْرُ جيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ

سَيَبْقَى الذِّكْرُ جيلاً بَعْدَ جِيلٍ

وَسَعْدُ اللهِ حَيٌّ لاَ يَمُوتُ

وَسَعْدُ اللهِ حَيٌّ لاَ يَمُوتُ

Remembrance will endure, generation after generation,

Remembrance will endure for generations

And Saad Allah lives, never to die.

And Saadullah lives, he does not die
