Arabic

حـماةَ الـديارِ عليكمْ سـلامْ
أبَتْ أنْ تـذِلَّ النفـوسُ الكرامْ
عـرينُ العروبةِ بيتٌ حَـرام
وعرشُ الشّموسِ حِمَىً لا يُضَامْ
ربوعُ الشّـآمِ بـروجُ العَـلا
تُحاكي السّـماءَ بعـالي السَّـنا
فأرضٌ زهتْ بالشّموسِ الوِضَا
سَـماءٌ لَعَمـرُكَ أو كالسَّـما

رفيـفُ الأماني وخَفـقُ الفؤادْ
عـلى عَـلَمٍ ضَمَّ شَـمْلَ البلادْ
أما فيهِ منْ كُـلِّ عـينٍ سَـوادْ
ومِـن دمِ كـلِّ شَـهيدٍ مِـدادْ؟
نفـوسٌ أبـاةٌ ومـاضٍ مجيـدْ
وروحُ الأضاحي رقيبٌ عَـتيدْ
فمِـنّا الوليـدُ و مِـنّا الرّشـيدْ
فلـمْ لا نَسُـودُ ولِمْ لا نشـيد؟

Latin-alphabet transliteration

Humat ad diari aaleikum salam
Abat an tazila an nufusu al kiram
Arinu al urubati beyton haram
Wa Aarshu ash shumusi himan la yudam
Robughu as shami buruju al Aala
Tohaki as suma'a bia'ali alsana
Fa ardon zahat bilshumusi al widaa'a
Samaon limaroka aw kal sama
Rafifu alamani wakhafku alfuad
Aala aalamen damma shamla al bilad
Ama fihi min kuli ainen sawad
Wa min dami kuli shahiden midad
Noufuson ubaton wa madin magid
Wa rouhu al adahi rakibon atid
Fa minna al walidu wa minna al rashid
Fa lem la nasudu wa lem la nasheed
