Arabic lyrics English translation

𝄆 سورية يا ذات المجد
والعزة في ماضي العهد 𝄇
إن كنت لنا أسمى مهد
فثراك لنا أسمى لحد
𝄆 سندافع عنك بذا القلب
فبه قد سال دم العرب 𝄇

𝄆 أسقينا ماء قد عذبا
إن كنت لنا أما وأبا 𝄇
من يشرب ماءك لا يأبى
موتا إن كنت له سببا
𝄆 سندافع عنك بذا القلب
فبه قد سال دم العرب 𝄇

𝄆 وسنحيي المجد من الرمس
بأولي عزم وأولي بأس 𝄇
جهلوا ابدا معنى اليأس
ورأوا بالموت هنا النفس
𝄆 سندافع عنك بذا القلب
فبه قد سال دم العرب 𝄇

𝄆 سورية يا ذات المجد
والعزة في ماضي العهد 𝄇
إن كنت لنا أسمى مهد
فثراك لنا أسمى لحد
𝄆 سندافع عنك بذا القلب
فبه قد سال دم العرب 𝄇

𝄆 O Syria, who owns the glory
And the pride in the era of the past 𝄇
If you were for us the highest cradle
Your wealth is our highest limit
𝄆 We will defend you with the love of our hearts
For with it spilled the blood of the arabs 𝄇

𝄆 Give us fresh water
If you were for us a mother and a father 𝄇
Whoever drinks your water never rejects
Death if you were at it's cause
𝄆 We will defend you with the love of our hearts
For with it spilled the blood of the arabs 𝄇

𝄆 And we will revive the glory from the tomb
With who got the willpower and strength 𝄇
They ignored the meaning of dispair
And they saw with death the fulfillment of spirit
𝄆 We will defend you with the love of our hearts
For with it spilled the blood of the arabs 𝄇

𝄆 O Syria, who owns the glory
And the pride in the era of the past 𝄇
If you were for us the highest cradle
Your wealth is our highest limit
𝄆 We will defend you with the love of our hearts
For with it spilled the blood of the arabs 𝄇
