1. Though I am the son of Aamir's chieftain
And his knight in every caravan
١. إِنّي وَإِن كُنتُ اِبنَ سَيِّدِ عامِرٍ
وَفارِسَها المَندوبَ في كُلِّ مَوكِبِ
2. Aamir has not darkened me from kinship
Allah refused that I be named for a mother or father
٢. فَما سَوَّدَتني عامِرٌ عَن قَرابَةٍ
أَبى اللَهُ أَن أَسمو بِأُمٍّ وَلا أَبِ
3. But I protect her sanctuary and beware
Her harm and I strike with a shoulder whoever casts at her
٣. وَلَكِنَّني أَحمي حِماها وَأَتَّقي
أَذاها وَأَرمي مَن رَماها بِمَنكِبِ
