The Veil (Al Hejab)

Let’s them say about my veil
That it’s killing my youth

Let’s them exaggerate in blaming me
I belong to Religion

No, I swear I would never care
My firm will is like the mountain

What is meant by beauty
If it is easy to get

They tried to deceive me
I shouted at them to leave me 

I will remain in my decency
I will never accept impudence

They will never affect my pride 
I am the symbol of purity

I walk in the light of piety 
Behind the best prophet

I have a proud soul 
That rejects lowliness

In my path, brother
Somaya is the ideal

I am guided by Religion
Our source is pure, sister

Our path is a path of chastity
Follow it without fears

Our Religion is symbol of virtue
It never accepts vice

You are the respectable daughter of Religion
You are the descendant of notables 

By my veil and decency
I impose my self-respect

I will go ahead
And never care about blames
