1. Among our days was a wondrous day,
No day like the day of Bani Bahran.

2. At the cleft of the fly where the shepherd folk poured down,
Responding to the caller without hesitation.

3. Guarding him, no intention to evade
The stinging blades of the backbiting foe.

4. My paternal cousins will not go far,
My cousins! By your father's life they were not,

5. Valiant raiders and frontier guards
When the flames of war raged high.
