Kuwait, My Country, May you be safe
and glorious!
May you always enjoy good fortune!
You are the cradle of my ancestors,
who have distinguished themselves in this world, and immortalized
themselves with their heroic deeds and martyrdom, and are to be found
like stars shining in Paradise.
Kuwait, My Country, May you be safe
and glorious!
May you always enjoy good fortune!
Kuwait, My Country, May you be
blessed as our happy homeland, and may you ever stand defended by free
countrymen who have built our noble life with the most generous hands.
Kuwait, My Country, May you be safe
and glorious!
May you always enjoy good fortune!
We vow to defend you, with Divine Law
as our witness, and truth and rightness as our guide, and with our
reliable, generous and trustworthy Amir as our leader to prosperity
and glory.
Kuwait, My Country, May you be safe
and glorious!
May you always enjoy good fortune!
