1. What fiery meteor of war, kindling its flames,
Accompanied the son of Dhi Yazan and overtook Tubba,

2. In the grip of Yahya it became a flashing white blade,
It knew the truth so it became a Shia,

3. The sword flowed through him as if
It remembered the martyr of Karbala so it wept,

4. It is enough from what you desired in the heat of battle that
You meet the foe and draw from him a finger.
