By my life, what a good clan is the crying Asīd

لعمري لنعم الحي اسمع غدوة

1. By my life, what a good clan is the crying Asīd
A truthful one when the war cry was believed

١. لعمري لنعم الحيُّ اسمعُ غدوةً
أسيدٌ وقد جَدَّ الصُراخُ المُصدَّق

2. So listen, O youths, like a fragrant garden
With clear wine at the thrust and charge and believed

٢. فاسمع فتيانا كجَنَّة عَبقَرٍ
لهم رَيِّقٌ عند الطعانِ ومصدقُ

3. They saw a raid containing the dark horses as though they were
Locusts cleared away, having set out early and scattered

٣. رأوا غارة تحوي السّوامَ كأنّها
جرادٌ ضُحَيا سارح متورَّقُ

4. They took them in their sides, awoke and bellies
So they did not return until they died and were set free

٤. أخَذن بهم جنبي أفاق وبطنها
فما رجعوا حتى ارقوا وأعتقوا
