[Verse – Natural Syrian Street Rap]

يا خيي قديش مرق علينا سنين

Ya khayi qaddesh maraq alayna sneen

Oh my brother, how many years have passed over us

والوجع ساكن بعيون الملايين

Wal waja' sakin bi'uyoon al malayeen

And pain resides in the eyes of millions

شفنا بيوتنا كيف صارت حجار

Shifna buyootna keef saarat ahjar

We saw our homes how they turned into stones

وشفنا أحلامنا تضيع بالنهار

Wa shifna ahlamna tadeea' bin-nahar

And we saw our dreams getting lost during the day

بس لا تفكر إنو شعبنا مات

Bas la tfakkir inno sha'bna maat

But don't think that our people have died

لسّا فينا نوقف مهما فات

Lissa feena noqaf mahma faat

We can still stand no matter what has passed

من درعا لحلب، صوتنا ما سكت

Min Daraa la Halab, sawtna ma sakat

From Daraa to Aleppo, our voice hasn't been silenced

ومهما صار، هالأرض إلنا وبس

Wa mahma sar, hal ard ilna w bas

And no matter what happens, this land is ours and only ours

[Flow – Aggressive]

رح نبنيها حجر فوق حجر

Rah nabneeha hajar fawq hajar

We will build it stone upon stone

ونرجّع الضحكة بعد هالقهر

Wa nrajje' ad-dahka ba'd hal qahar

And bring back laughter after this oppression

ما بدنا حقد ولا بدنا ثار

Ma baddna heqd wala baddna thar

We don't want hatred, nor do we want revenge

بدنا بلد نعيش فيها بأمان

Baddna balad na'eesh feeha bi aman

We want a country where we can live in safety

[Chorus]

يا سوريا يا أمّي يا أغلى بلاد

Ya Souriya ya ummi ya aghla bilad

Oh Syria, my mother, most precious land

تعبنا كتير وهلّق إجا المعاد

Ta'abna kteer w hallaq ija al ma'ad

We've suffered a lot, and now the time has come

بدنا نعيش وما نخاف من بكرا

Baddna na'eesh w ma nkhaf min bukra

We want to live and not be afraid of tomorrow

ونشوف هالشمس طالعة من بكرا

W nshoof hash shams tale'a min bukra

And see this sun rising from tomorrow
