سارة، والمجد يشهد lyrics

أتت وفي عينيها من العزم موعد

Atat wa fi 'aynayha min al-'azm maw'id

She came, and in her eyes was a promise of determination

وفي خطوها سر من المجد يولد

Wa fi khuṭwihā sirrun min al-majd yūlad

And in her steps, a secret of glory is born

سرت والليالي في مداها شواهد

Sarat wa al-layālī fī madāhā shawāhid

She walked, and the nights in her path are witnesses

وكم حاربت حتى تبين مقصد

Wa kam ḥārabat ḥattá tabayyana maqṣad

And how much she fought until her goal became clear

إذا ضاق درب في المسير تفتحت

Idhā ḍāqa darbun fī al-masīr tafattaḥat

If a path narrowed on the journey, it opened up

لها في ربى الإصرار أبواب موعد

Lahā fī rubā al-iṣrār abwāb maw'id

For her, in the hills of persistence, doors of promise

هندسة البرمجات كانت مدارها

Handasat al-barmajāt kānat madārahā

Software engineering was her focus

ولكن عقلا فوق كل تفرد

Wa lākin 'aqlan fawqa kulli tafarud

But a mind above all uniqueness

وما كان درب العلم سهلا لعابر

Wa mā kāna darbu al-'ilm sahlan li-'ābir

And the path of knowledge was not easy for a passerby

ولكنه صقل النفوس ومولد

Wa lākinahu ṣaqlu al-nufūs wa mawlid

But it is the refining of souls and a birthplace

بنت من عناء الوقت صرحا لفكرها

Banat min 'anā' al-waqt ṣarḥan li-fikrihā

She built from the toil of time a fortress for her thought

وصاغت من الأكواد ما لا يقلد

Wa ṣāghat min al-akwād mā lā yuqallad

And crafted from codes what cannot be imitated

تعاندت الأسطر، استعصى مسارها

Ta'ānadat al-asṭur, ista'ṣá masāruhā

The lines were stubborn, their path difficult

فما لان عزم، ولا خاب مقصد

Famā lāna 'azm, wa lā khāba maqṣad

But her resolve did not soften, nor did her goal fail

وكم من خلل قد أوقف الخطو برهة

Wa kam min khalalin qad awqafa al-khaṭwa burhah

And how many glitches stopped her progress for a moment

فكانت تعيد البدء وهي تجدد

Fakānat tu'īd al-bad' wa hiya tujaddid

So she would restart, renewing herself

تفكك ألغاز المسائل فكرة

Tufakkik alghāz al-masā'il fikrah

She unravels the mysteries of problems with an idea

وتبني من التحليل حلما يخلد

Wa tabnī min al-taḥlīl ḥulman yukhallad

And builds from analysis an everlasting dream

إيه! من هي؟ فتاة العزم!

Īh! Man hiya? Fatāt al-'azm!

Oh! Who is she? The girl of determination!

ما هزها وقت ولا كسر إشارة!

Mā hazzahā waqt wa lā kasara ishārah!

Neither time shook her nor did a signal break!

صفر وواحد، فكر يجاهد

Ṣifr wa wāḥid, fikr yujāhid

Zero and one, a struggling mind

كود يعاند، وعقل يكابد!

Kūd yu'ānid, wa 'aql yukābid!

Stubborn code, and a mind that endures!

من أول السطر لآخر اختبار

Min awwal al-saṭr li-ākhir ikhtibār

From the first line to the last test

ما كان دربي مجرد انتظار

Mā kāna darbī mujarrad intizār

My path was not just waiting

أخطأت؟ أصحح!

Akhta'tu? Uṣaḥḥiḥ!

I made a mistake? I correct it!

أتعبت؟ أكمل!

At'abt? Ukmil!

Tired? I continue!

أسقطت؟ أنهض!

Asqaṭt? Anhāḍ!

Fell? I rise!

والمجد لا يرحل!

Wa al-majd lā yarḥal!

And glory does not depart!

لا تحسبوا أن الشهادة كل شيء

Lā taḥsabū anna al-shahādah kull shay'

Do not think that the certificate is everything

هذا البداية، والطموح له فضاء

Hādhā al-bidāyah, wa al-ṭumūḥ lahu faḍā'

This is the beginning, and ambition has its space

فيا سائلا عنها، فهذي حكاية

Fa yā sā'ilan 'anhā, fa hādhihi ḥikāyah

So, to him who asks about her, this is a story

تخط على وجه الزمان تفردا

Takhuṭṭu 'alá wajh al-zamān tafarudā

That inscribes uniqueness on the face of time

ابنة العزم والهمة، وفي اسمها

Ibnat al-'azm wa al-himmah, wa fī ismihā

Daughter of determination and zeal, and in her name

من العز ما يسمو ويبقى مؤبدا

Min al-'izz mā yasmū wa yabqá mu'abbadā

There is glory that rises and remains eternal

جاءت الدنيا لتبقى مقيدا

Jā'at al-dunyā li-tabqá muqayyadan

She came to the world to remain bound

ما كان ختم الدرب إلا بدء

Mā kāna khatm al-darb illā bad'

The end of the path was nothing but a beginning

والعزم، والمعالي شاهد

Wa al-'azm, wa al-ma'ālī shāhid

And determination, and high achievements are witness

بأن الذي يسعى يطاول مقصدا

Bi-anna alladhī yas'á yuṭāwil maqṣadā

That whoever strives reaches their goal

لا تحسبوا أن انتهاء دراسة

Lā taḥsabū anna intihā' dirāsah

Do not think that the end of studies

هو المنتهى، فالمجد أبعد موعدا

Huwa al-muntahá, fa al-majd ab'ad maw'idā

Is the end, for glory is a further promise

هنا وقفت... لا كي تودع حلمها

Hunā waqafat... lā kay tuwaddi'a ḥulmahā

Here she stood... not to bid farewell to her dream

ولكن لتبدأ في المدى ما توعدا

Wa lākin li-tabda'a fī al-madá mā tuwa''adā

But to begin in the expanse what she promised

يا فتاة العزم!

Yā fatāt al-'azm!

Oh girl of determination!

والمجد يشهد أنها

Wa al-majd yashhad annahā

And glory bears witness that she is

ماه

Māh

Great

وما كان هذا المجد إلا موعدا!

Wa mā kāna hādhā al-majd illā maw'idā!

And this glory was nothing but a promise!
