[edit] Arabic lyrics

قسما بمن رفع السماء

قسما بمن نشر الضياء

قطر ستبقي حرة تسمو

بروح الاوفياء

سيروا على نهج الألى سيروا

وعلى ضياء الانبياء

قطر بقلبي سيرة

عز وأمجاد الاباء

قطر الرجال الاولين

حماتنا يوم النداء

وخمائم يوم السلام

جوارح يوم الفداء

قسما قسما

قسما بمن رفع السماء

قسما بمن نشر الضياء

قطر ستبقى حرة تسمو

بروح الأوفياء

[edit] English translation

Swearing by God who erected the sky

Swearing by God who spread the light

Qatar will always be free

Sublimed by the souls of the sinceres

Procede thou on the manners of the ascendants

And advance on Prophet's guidance

In my heart,

Qatar is an epic of glory and dignity

Qatar is land of the early men

Who protect us at time of distress,

Doves they can be at times of peace,

Warriors they are at times of sacrifice
