Lyrics

Arabic Transliteration English translation
سارعي للمجد و العلياء

مجدي لخالق السماء
و ارفعي الخفاق أخضر
يحمل النور المسطر
رددي الله أكبر يا موطني
موطني عشت فخر المسلمين

عاش المليك للعلم و الوطن
Sār‘ī le l-majd wa l-‘alyā',
Majjedī le Khāleq as-Samā'!
Wa arfa‘ī el khaffāq akhḍḍar
Yaḥmil an-Nūr al-musaṭṭar
Raddedi: Allahu akbar,
Yā mawtanī!
Mawtanī, ‘išta fakhr al-Muslimīn
‘Āsh al-Malik le l-‘alam wa l-watan!1
Hasten to glory and supremacy,
Glorify the Creator of the heavens!
And raise the green flag
Carrying the emblem of Light,
Repeating: Allah is the greatest,
O my country!
My country, Live as the glory of Muslims!
Long live the King for the flag and the country!1
