للوطن [Lil Watan] [English translation]

Others tamed tornadoes to control their fate /

n' we're blown by the breeze, and to ruin we abate/

and if you question our decline / with slogans they reply /

and conspiracies they invoke / for their slogans to provoke/

they call treason when you call/ for changing ... the state /

they made you despair/ so you sell your rights to save... the state

THey said "stop preaching, come dance with me a while"

"stop frowning, come dance with me a while"

They taught you their chorale, said your struggle is good... for the state

they numbed your morale, said your numbness is good... for the state

They said: "stop preaching, come dance with me a while"

"stop frowning, come dance with me a while"

"stop preaching, come dance with me a while"

"stop frowning, come dance with me a while"

"Stop preaching, come dance with me a while"

"Stop frowning, come dance with me...."
