1. يا سائلي عن موطني سأجيب عن

    ما السر في شمم و طيب المغرس

    O you who ask me about my homeland, I shall answer:

    What is the secret of its proud bearing and noble roots?

  2. شمم الأنوف لدى المغاربة استقى

    شمما تتيه به جبال الأطلس

    The proud lift of Moroccan noses has drawn

    On a loftiness in which the Atlas Mountains glory.

  3. قوم قباب العز تضرب فوقهم

    و على بساط الجود أكرمُ جُلَّس

    A people above whom the pavilions of glory are pitched,

    And, on generosity's carpet, the most generous of companions.

  4. من يبغ كسْبَ النور كي يزهو به

    فوجوههم للنور أطيب مقْبَسِ

    Whoever seeks to gain light so he may shine with it,

    Then their faces are the finest source from which to kindle light.

  5. ركبوا العلا و الفضل سادته همو

    بارَوْا فبزّوا في صفاء الأنفس

    They mounted the heights, and virtue's masters are they.

    They vied and prevailed in purity of soul.
