1. Your efforts against the enemy are arrows
And your view amid the wilderness of misguidance is a sword

2. Your glance fells the mighty horned beast
And your mention inspires the army though frenzied

3. It's as if you won't accept Basra as a dwelling
Unless the darkness there is dispelled because of you

4. It's as if you left the sun sulking so it hasn't stopped
Being content with the veil from you as its garb

5. And they may think making peace with you is safety
But many a dream has stirred in which there is a dove
