لَقَدْ حَرَّرْنَا الْقَاضِيَ أَبَا يُوسُفَ

We have liberated the judge, Abu Yusuf.

أَبُو يُوسُفَ حُرٌّ يَا رِجَالُ

Abu Yusuf is free, men!

يُوسُفُ! يَا يُوسُفُ! الْحَقْ أُمَّكَ

Yusuf! Oh Yusuf! Catch up with your mother.

هَيَّا انْطَلِقْ

Come on, go!

أَعْطُونِي فَرَسًا بِسُرْعَةٍ

Give me a horse quickly.

إِلَيْكَ هَذَا

Take this.

هَيَّا

Come on.

كَانَ قَصْرُ الْوَالِي غَارِقًا فِي صَمْتٍ ثَقِيلٍ

The governor's palace was drowned in a heavy silence.

لَا يَسْكُنُهُ إِلَّا وَقْعُ أَقْدَامٍ تَرْتَجِفُ خَوْفًا مِنَ الْقَدَرِ الْمَحْتُومِ

Inhabited by nothing but the sound of footsteps trembling with fear of the inevitable fate.

حَتَّى اقْتَحَمَ أَحَدُ الْجُنُودِ بَابَ الْقَصْرِ وَهُوَ فِي حَالَةٍ مُزْرِيَةٍ

Until one of the soldiers burst through the palace door in a wretched state.
