1. البحر يمضع ان به

    أسطولها يوما مخر

    The sea chews if, through it,

    her fleet should one day plough,

  2. بمدرعات لا يقي

    من بأسها الا القدر

    with ironclads; nothing shields

    against their might but fate.

  3. غواصها ان غاص لا

    يدري لعاديه مقر

    Her submarine, if it dives, has no

    position known to its enemy.

  4. تربيدها ان خاض لج

    البحر لا يبقى مفر

    If her torpedo boat enters the depths of

    the sea, no escape remains.
