Arabic Poetry

يَا رَاكِبًا بَلّغَنْ عَنّى مُغَلْغِلَةً ... مَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو بَلَاغَ اللّهِ وَالدّينِ
كُلّ امْرِئِ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللّهِ مُضْطَهَد ... بِبَطْنِ مَكّةَ مَقْهُورٍ وَمَفْتُونِ
أَنّا وَجَدْنَا بِلَادَ اللّهِ وَاسِعَةً ... تُنْجِي مِنْ الذّلّ وَالْمَخْزَاةِ وَالْهُونِ
فَلَا تُقِيمُوا عَلَى ذُلّ الْحَيَاةِ وَخِزْ ... يٍ فِي الْمَمَاتِ وَعَيْبٍ غَيْرِ مَأْمُونِ
إنّا تَبِعْنَا رَسُولَ اللّهِ وَاطّرَحُوا ... قَوْلَ النّبِيّ وَعَالُوا فِي الْمَوَازِينِ
فَاجْعَلْ عَذَابَكَ بِالْقَوْمِ الّذِينَ بَغَوْا ... وَعَائِذًا بِك أَنْ يَعْلُوَا فَيُطْغُونِي

Yaa raakiban ballighan 3anni mughalghilatan ... man kaana yarjoo balaaghallahi wad deeni
Kullimri'i min 3ibaadillahi waasi3atan ... tunjy minaz zilli wal makhzaati wal hooni
Falaa tuqeemoo 3ala zullil 7ayaati wa khiz ... yin fee mamaati wa 3aybin ghayri ma'mooni
Innaa tabi3naa rasoolallahi wat tara7oo ... qawlan nabi wa 3aaloo fil mawaazeeni
Faj3al 3azaabaka bil qawmillazeena bagho ... wa 3aa'izan bika ay ya3luwaa fa yutghuwani

O rider, take a message from me ... To those who hope for the demonstration of Allah and religion,
To everyone of God's persecuted servants ... Mistreated and hard tried in Mecca's vale,
Namely, that we have found God's country spacious ... Giving security from humiliation, shame and low-repute,
So do not live a life in humiliation ... And shame in death, not safe from blame.
We have followed the apostle of God, and they ... Have rejected the words of the prophet, and been deceitful
Visit thy punishment on the people who transgress ... And protect me lest they rise and lead me astray.

فيا عجبا كيف يعصي الإله
أم كيف يجحده الجاحد
و في كل شيء له آية
تدل على أنه واحد

Fayaa 3ajaban kayfa ya3sil ilaah
am kayfa yaj7aduhul jaa7id
wa fee kulli shay'in lahu aayah
tadullu 3ala annahu waa7id

لِلّهِ دَرّ عِصَابَةٍ لَاقَيْتهمْ ... يَا ابْنَ الْحُقَيْقِ وَأَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ الْأَشْرَفِ
يَسْرُونَ بِالْبِيضِ الْخِفَافِ إلَيْكُمْ ... مَرَحًا كَأُسْدٍ فِي عَرِينٍ مُغْرِفِ
حَتّى أَتَوْكُمْ فِي مَحِلّ بِلَادِكُمْ ... فَسَقَوْكُمْ حَتْفًا بِبِيضٍ ذُفّفِ
مُسْتَنْصِرِينَ لِنَصْرِ دِينِ نَبِيّهِمْ ... مُسْتَصْغَرِينَ لِكُلّ أَمْرٍ مُجْحِفِ

What a fine band you met, O Ibnu'l-Huqayq,
And you too, Ibnu'l-Ashraf,
Travelling by night with their light swords
Bold as lions in their jungle lair
Until they came to you in your quarter
And made you taste death with their deadly swords,
Seeking victory for the religion of their prophet
Counting their lives and wealth as nothing

Qul Maa shi'ta 3an musabbatee - Fa sukootee 3anil la'eemi jawaab
Maa ana 3aadimul jawaabu wa laakin - Maa min asadin yujeebul kilaab

Say what you will in abuse, For my silence is an answer to the scoundrel.
I am not devoid of an answer, but, It is not necessary for a lion to answer the dogs.

يا كثير العفو عمن كثر الذنب لديه
جاءك المذنب يرجوا الصفح عن جرم يديه
أنا ضيف و جزاء الضيف إحسان إليه

Yaa katheeral 3afwi 3amman kathuraz zanbu ladayh
Jaa'akal muznibu yarjus saf7a 3an jurmi yadayh
Ana dhayfun wa jazaa'udh dhayfi i7saanun ilayh

Oh most forgiving of the one whose sins has become large upon him
A sinner comes to you hoping for forgiveness for his crimes
I am a guest and the reward of a guest is that he be treated kindly
