Original Lyrics in Arabic
منبت الأحرار
مشرق الأنوار
منتدى السؤدد وحماه
دمت منتداه وحماه
عشت في الأوطان
للعلى عنوان
ملء كل جنان
ذكرى كل لسان
بالروح
بالجسد
هب فتاك
لبى نداك
في فمي وفي دمي
هواك ثار نور ونار
إخوتي هيا
للعلا سعيا
نشهد الدنيا
أن هنا نحيا
بشعار
الله الوطن الملك
English Translation of the Lyrics
Here is the Morocco national anthem English version. “Hymne Chérifien” reflects the pride and unity of Morocco. Below is the English translation of the lyrics.
Fountain of Freedom,
Source of Light,
Forum of Glory and its Protector,
May you continue as its forum and protector.
You have lived among nations
With a title sublime,
Filling every garden,
Sung by every tongue.
With spirit,
With body,
Your hero has risen
To answer your call.
In my mouth and in my blood,
Your love stirred as light and fire.
Let’s go brothers!
Towards what is higher,
We testify to the world
That we here live
With the motto:
God, the Homeland, the King.
