Aash Al Maleek

For Jordanian Royal Anthem with the same name (عاش المليك), see As-salam al-malaki al-urdoni.

As-Salam Al Malaki (The Royal Salute) is the national anthem of Saudi Arabia. It praises God and asks that he will grant the King of Saudi Arabia long life. The words of the song were written by Ibrahim Khafaji (b. 1935) and the music was by Abdul Rahman Al-Khateeb (b. 1923). It was adopted as the national anthem in 1950.


Lyrics

Arabic Transliteration English translation
سارعي للمجد و العلياء
مجدي لخالق السماء
و ارفعي الخفاق أخضر
يحمل النور المسطر
رددِ الله أكبر ياموطني
موطني قد عشت فخر المسلمين
عاش المليك للعلم و الوطن
Sār‘ī le l-majd wa l-‘alyā',
Majjedī le Khāleq as-Samā'!
Wa arfa‘ī el khaffāq akhḍḍar
Yaḥmil an-Nūr al-musaṭṭar
Raddedi: Allahu akbar,
Yā mawtanī!
Mawtanī, qad ‘išta fakhr al-Muslimīn
‘Āsh al-Malik le l-‘alam wa l-watan![1]
Hasten to glory and supremacy,
Glorify the Creator of the heavens!
And raise the green flag
Carrying the emblem of Light,
Repeating: God is the greatest,
O my country!
My country, you have lived the glory of Muslims!
Long live the King for the flag and the country![1]
