We work, we work, we work, we are saved * No matter how long we live, we are saved
Security lasted and the flag lived, our Emirates * The symbol of Arabism, we hold you all to ransom ديك
We will anoint you with blood We will redeem you with souls, oh homeland

In Tunisia, the composer of the national anthem was the Egyptian Mustafa Sadiq Al-Rafi’i and his melody was Ahmed Khair Al-Din. The name of the hymn was “Hama Al-Hima”, which was adopted after the hymn of “Ala Al-Khaldi” after the overthrow of Bourguiba.
Mohamed Abdel Wahhab was expected to redistribute the tune from the Tunisian national anthem, but the idea did not materialize, and two lines were added to Abi al-Qasim al-Shabi at the end of the hymn.
Here are the words of the Tunisian national anthem:
Fever protectors, fever protectors, come on, come on, for the glory of time
I cried in our veins, blood we die, we die, and the country lives
My country, reign, reign and be happy, because no one lives without a master
With the sea of my blood and what’s in my hand, I belong to my country and my party is a ransom
Glory to you, Tunisia, so glorify the long-term glory of your people
And we are the blacks of the battle, so witness and dress your blacks on the day of the clash
May the heavens resound their thunder, and thunderbolts cast their fires
To the glory of Tunisia, to its glory, the men and the youth of the country
No one has lived in Tunisia who betrayed her, nor lived one who was not one of her soldiers

And pure blood
And shiny glittering elements
In the high mountains
We are enriched by life or death
We are determined that Algeria lives
So testify … then testify … then testify …

The lyrics of the Iraqi National Anthem say:
I swear it’s time, my gun, I miss you in my fight, I swear it’s time, my gun
Oh war, by god it’s time to speak up and say I’m sober
Crawling with thunderous thunder, God is the time for the soldiers
Except with the victory of time, an alliance that will not back down
They carried the serpent on their paws and joined the ranks
From the fire of the field, the enemy will see
Oh who was adopted by us, oh glory, oh glory
What remains of your life is the humiliation with our difficulties and our difficulties
The people, the mountains of the people, are the seas of the people, they crawl like light
An earthquake pushes them into the graves of the Befor volcano eruption.

commando, commando, oh my people, oh people of eternity
With the determination of the wind and the fire of arms and the determination of my people to lead the struggle
Palestine is my home and the way to my victory, Palestine is my vengeance and the land of steadfastness
commando, commando, commando, oh my land, oh land of ancestors
commando, commando, oh my people, oh people of eternity
For the pleasure of swearing under the shadow of the flag of my land and my people and the fire of pain
I will live my ransom and spend my ransom and spend my ransom until you come back
commando, commando, commando, oh my land, oh land of ancestors
commando, commando, oh my people, oh people of eternity
