## Lyrics

بلادُ العُربِ أوطاني منَ الشّـامِ لبغدانِ ومن نجدٍ إلى يَمَـنٍ إلى مِصـرَ فتطوانِ

The Arab lands is my nation, from the Levant to Baghdad From Najd to Yemen to Egypt to Tétouan

فـلا حـدٌّ يباعدُنا ولا ديـنٌ يفـرّقنا لسان الضَّادِ يجمعُنا بغـسَّانٍ وعـدنانِ

No Borders can separate us, and no religion can divide us The Language of Ḍād (Arabic) unites us, Ghassanids and Adnani

بلادُ العُربِ أوطاني من الشّـامِ لبغدانِ ومن نجدٍ إلى يمـنٍ إلى مصـرَ فتطوانِ

The Arab Lands are my Nations, from the Levant to Baghdad From Najd to Yemen to Egypt to Tétouan

لنا مدنيّةُ سَـلفَـتْ سنُحييها وإنْ دُثرَتْ ولو في وجهنا وقفتْ دهاةُ الإنسِ و الجانِ

We have a Civilization that has passed, we will revive it if it dies Even if against us, stood the shrewds of Humanity and Jinn

بلادُ العُربِ أوطاني من الشّـامِ لبغدانِ ومن نَجدٍ إلى يَمَـنٍ إلى مصـرَ فتطوانِ

The Arab Lands are my Nations, from the Levant to Baghdad From Najd to Yemen to Egypt to Tétouan

فهبوا يا بني قومي إلى العـلياءِ بالعلمِ و غنوا يا بني أمّي بلادُ العُربِ أوطاني

Rise up my fellows, to higher Science and oh sons of my Mother, sing for your Arab Nations

بلادُ العُربِ أوطاني منَ الشّـام لبغدانِ ومن نجدٍ إلى يمـنٍ إلى مِصـرَ فتطوانِ

The Arab Lands are my Nations, from the Levant to Baghdad From Najd to Yemen to Egypt to Tétouan
