National anthem of Mauritania

١
بِلَادَ الْأُبَاةِ الْهُدَاةِ الْكِرَام
وَحِصْنَ الْكِتَابِ الَّذِيْ لَا يُضَام
أَيَا مُوْرِيْتَانِ رَبِيْعَ الْوُئَام
وَرُكْنَ السَّمَاحَةِ ثَغْرَ السَّلَام

كورال:
سَنَحْمِيْ حِمَاكِ وَنَحْنُ فِدَاكِ
وَنَكْسُوْ رُبَاكِ بِلَوْنِ الْأمَلْ
وَعِنْدَ نِدَاكِ نُلَبِّيْ أَجَلْ

٢
بُدُوْرُ سَمَائِكِ لَمْ تُحْجَبِ
وَشَمْسُ جَبِينِكِ لَمْ تَغْرُبِ
نَمَاكِ الْأَمَاجِدُ مِنْ يَّعْرُبِ
لِإِفْرِيْقِيَّا الْمَنْبَعِ الْأَعْذَبِ

كورال

٣
رَضَعْنَا لِبَانَ النَّدَى وَالْإِبَا
سَجَايَا حَمَلْنَ جَنًى طَيِّبَا
وَمَرْعًى خَصِيْباً، وَإِنْ أَجْدَبَا
سَمَوْنَا، فَكَانَ لَنَا أَرْحَبَا

كورال

٤
سَقَيْنَا عَدُوَّكِ صَاباً وَمُرًّا
فَمَا نَالَ نُزْلًا وَلَا مُسْتَقَرَّا
نُقَاوِمُهُ حَيْثُ جَاسَ ومَرَّا
نُرَتِّلُ إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا

كورال

(٥)
قَفَوْنَا الرَّسُوْلَ بِنَهْجٍ سَمَا
إِلٰى سِدْرَةِ الْمَجْدِ فَوْقَ السَّمَا
حَجَزْنَا الثُّرَيَّا لَنَا سُلَّمَا
رَسَمْنَا هُنَالِكَ حَدَّ الحِمٰى

كورال

٦
أَخَذْنَاكِ عَهْدًا حَمَلْنَاكِ وَعْدًا
وَنُهْدِيْكِ سَعْداً لِجِيْلٍ أَطَلْ

كورال النهائي:
سَنَحْمِيْ حِمَاكِ وَنَحْنُ فِدَاكِ
وَنَكْسُوْ رُبَاكِ بِلَوْنِ الْأَمَلْ
سَنَحْمِيْ حِمَاكِ وَنَحْنُ فِدَاكِ
وَعِنْدَ نِدَاكِ نُلَبِّيْ أَجَلْ

I
Land of the proud, guided by noblemen
The fortress of the Book that can't be bound
O Mauritania, the spring of harmony
The corner of tolerance, the haven of peace.

Chorus:
We will protect you with our lives
and paint your hills with the colour of hope
When you call, "Yes!" is our answer.

II
The crescent moon in your sky will never wane
and the sun on your forehead will never set
Because the noble Arabs enriched you
and the purest source is Africa's.

Chorus

III
We drank the milk of dew and pride
A nature that brought a good harvest
and a fertile pasture, even when it's barren
welcoming us as we ascend.

Chorus

IV
We made your enemy drink a bitter downpour
so he couldn't settle or rest
We resist him wherever he goes
Praying: "Surely, with hardship comes ease".

Chorus

(V, only sung on 57th independence day)
We followed the prophet along the path of the heavens
to the tree of glory above the sky
occupying the Pleiades as our stairway
drawing our border there.

Chorus

VI
We took you as a vow and carried you as a promise
and we happily give you up to the future generations.

Final chorus:
We will protect you with our lives
and paint your hills with the colour of hope
We will protect you with our lives
When you call, "yes!" is our answer.
