1. They blamed you and were wrong
When you called, they delayed

2. And pretended until you were reconciled
But when you made amends, they shunned you

3. They feared punishment, so they strengthened
And prepared themselves to flee

4. Leave them be, for not all the firm
Are firm in the face of calamities

5. You will soon hear what will befall
Those who envy your glory

6. So face the enemies with a rising
At which sights will turn bleary

7. For you, we have youths
Who do not neglect their vengeance

8. They sought refuge with you, altogether
And the like of your shade is sought

9. They expected your approval
And shunned all else

10. And were alert as if
They prophesied your warning

11. O Douha, the whole world
Seeks shade under its shadows

12. You are but a group
From which the generous are divided

13. If you reconcile, the enemies will abandon us
Shattered open from every crevice

14. And they will taste the bitterness of death
For daring what they did

15. So protect us from the enemy's throats
For by relatives is protection found

16. Verily roots, even if
Their covenant is remote, do not err

17. And enjoy the bounty of mention, for it
Is the most blissful of spoils

18. A man is provided what he wills
From time, and deprivation
