The Youth Anthem



 

Poet Lutfi Zaghlul

The Youth Anthem


 
might your hands be blessed,
be ready and prepare yourselves
Palestine, the home of glory is calling for you,
give it every effort and diligence,
raise its flag high in every sky.

To glory, to glory

promising the future,
we will protect our homeland
and keep it honored and crowned,
the dawn has shone on its horizons,
we’ve sworn we will not accept
any except it.

All the time without hesitation
we’ll build our home high
and we’ll sacrifice ourselves for it,
we’ve written its name
a master above the stars,
and a torch that its light
will never fade.

To glory, to glory
promising the future,
we will protect our homeland
and keep it honored and crowned,
the dawn has shone on its horizons,
we’ve sworn we will not accept
any except it.

Translated by : M. Kurdi
