Jamal Assadi ترجمة لقصيدة تاريخ العزة للشاعر : رفيق سليمان
Adorned with laurels,
The history of our nation is,
And in the sky of its pride,
There’re crowns on the summits.
For the fathers
The page of glory is a sign,
At battlefields
They are lions and knights.
Our civilization they have created:
Its constitution is a flag
Justice, science and ethics are brothers.
If in doubt you're,
Ask centuries passed,
About our pride,
A star and universes will tell you.
These are their feats:
Like the sun is bright,
Does denial block the sun's rays?
Oh day of Badr,
When the soldier of evil have gathered
A demon leads their ill-fated party!
Their bodies collapsed,
At the time of their justice,
So did the walls and corners of the infidelity.
At Yarmouk brigades of righteousness
Have won,
The sword of my God smashed infidelity.
And I remember
Their battalions with humiliation were defeated
At Qadisiyyah when the will was a volcano!
The brows of our banners
Never bend
Even on a damned day,
They’re brave in the field.
They were kings,
To their will all the earth was subject.
By domination,
Persians and Romans were eliminated.
This is the Rashid*
Whispering to the loaded clouds:
The good of your crops is for me
The most Merciful collects it.
Hattin**, the generations’ school
Tells us:
Above the throne of truth
Tyranny does not rise.
And Jerusalem, the capital of Islam,
Is lofty
No matter how much aggression is shielded
With denial!
Our free Golan, like the soul,
Inhabits us,
Can a human live
Without the soul?
Your memory, oh my nation,
Is an incubator of glory!
In the heart you are present;
Forgetting will not harm us!
Oh, Abu Al-Baqa’!***
You agitated my rhyme today,
Sadness is burning
And the thought is diseased.
We were kings,
The glory of justice was our power
And today our scale
With humiliation is lost!
"My nation, if we cry today, pardon me!”
Because of our humiliation
We are slaves for foreigners!
Oh you that ask about the guidance of goodness:
Our example
With their traces basil hugged the souls.
Imams of guidance
Are lanterns of our darkness,
Flags of our law
Have not strayed any confused!
Ibn al-Nafis,**** pioneered medical sciences
The east and west
Bowed to his achievements.
Algorithmic computational science
Has been renewed by al-Khwārizmī *****
His glamorous heritage
For generations is proof!
They were the people of science
That flowed in the whole world,
Its lights in the forehead of the people are titles.
Our white glories are proud of us
If in the conscience of the free integrity wakes up!
The good in my nation never passes
As long as in the heart there is charity and faith!
* Hārūn Ar-Rašīd, the fifth Abbasid Caliph, established the legendary library Bayt al-Hikma in Baghdad and during his reign, Baghdad thrived as a world center of knowledge, philosophy and commerce.
** The Battle of Hattin, 1187, in which the Ayyubid sultan Saladin captured or killed the massive majority of the Crusader forces, eliminating their ability to wage war.
***Abu Al-Baqa’! the Andalusian poet who lamented the fall of the last Islamic castle in Spain.
****Ibn al-Nafis, was an Arab polymath whose scientific activities included medicine, surgery, physiology, anatomy, biology, Islamic studies, jurisprudence, and philosophy.
Muḥammad al-Khwārizmī (c. 780 – c. 850), was a Persian polymath who produced vastly influential works in mathematics, astronomy, and geography.

تاريخُ أمتنا بالغار مزدانُ
وفي سما عزها للهام تيجانُ
فصفحةُ المجد للآباءِ شاهدةٌ
بأنهم في الوغى أسدٌ وفرسانُ
شادوا حضارتنا دستورها عَلَمٌ
العدل والعلم والأخلاق إخوانُ
فاسأل قرونا مضت إن كنت في ريَبٍ
ينبيكَ عن عزِّنا نجمٌ وأكوانُ
هذي مآثرهم كالشمس ساطعةٌ
فهل يواري شعاع الشمس نكرانُ
يا يوم بدر وجند الشرِّ مجتمعٌ
يقودُ حزبهمُ المشؤومَ شيطانُ
فانهار جُحفلُهم إبانَ عدلهمُ
وانهار للكفر اسوارٌ وأركانُ
كتائبُ الحقِّّ في اليرموك ظافرةٌ
بحدِّ سيف إلهي فلَّ كفرانُ
واذكر كتائبهم بالذلِّ قد هُزمتْ
في القادسيَّةِ حينَ العزمُ بركانُ
جبين راياتنا لا ينحني أبدا
يوم الكريهةِ في الميدان شجعانُ
كانوا ملوكا وكلُّ الأرض طوعهمُ
بالقهرِ قد مُحقت فرسّ ورومانُ
هذا الرشيد يناجي السُّحْبَ مُثقلةً
خراج خيرك لي ... يجبيهِ رحمانُ
حطينُ مدرسة الأجيالِ تخبرنا
لا يعتلي فوق عرش الحقِّ طغيانُ
والقدس عاصمة الإسلام شامخةٌ
مهما تدرَّعَ بالنُّكرانِ عدوانُ
جولاننا الحرُّ مثل الروح يسكننا
فهل يعيش بدون الرُّوحِ إنسانُ
ذكراكِ يا أمتي للمجد حاضنةٌ
في القلب حاضرةٌ ما ضرَّ نسيانُ
أبا البقاء أثرت اليوم قافيتي
فالحزن متَّقدٌ والفكر عيَّانُ
كنا ملوكا جلالُ العدل سطوتنا
واليوم ميزاننا بالذل خسرانُ
"يا أمتي إن بكينا اليوم معذرةً"
فنحن من ذلنا للعجم عبدانُ
يا سائلاً عن هداةِ الخيرِ أسوتنا
بذكرهم عانق الأرواحَ ريحانُ
أئمةٌ للهدى مصباحُ ظلمتِنا
أعلام شرعتنا ما ضلَّ حيرانُ
ابنُ النَّفيسِ علوم الطبِّ رائدُها
شرقاً وغرباً بإنجازاتهِ دانوا
علمُ الحسابِ الخوارزميُّ جدَّدَهُ
آثارهُ الغرُّ للأجيالِ برهانُ
هم اهل علمٍ سرى في الارضِ قاطبةً
أنوارهُ في جباهِ القومِ عنوانُ
أمجادنا البيض عزٌّّ في مفاخرنا
إذا صحا في ضمير الحرِّ وجدانُ
الخير في أمَّتي لا ينقضي أبداً
مادام في القلب إحسانٌ وإيمانُ
