Chorus:
𝄆 My homeland, my homeland, my homeland
You have my love and my heart. 𝄇

I
Egypt! O mother of all countries,
You are my hope and my ambition,
And above all people,
Your Nile has countless graces!

Chorus

II
Egypt! Most precious gem,
A blaze on the brow of eternity!
O my homeland, be for ever free,
Safe from every enemy!

Chorus

III
Egypt, noble are your children.
Loyal, and guardians of the reins.
Be we at war or peace
We will sacrifice ourselves for you, my homeland.
