1. The swords flashed in an instant against those I struck down
And hearts were drenched with blood
١. كَلَتْ سيوفُ لَحْظِ مَنْ هَوَيْتُهُ
وَضُرِّجَتْ مِنَ القلوبِ بالدَّمِ
2. So it sharpened them, the kohl, until they ripped open
The whiteness of their enemies with the greatest darkness
٢. فَسَنّها الكحّالُ حتّى فَتَكَتْ
بيضُ ظُباها بالسّوادِ الأَعظَمِ
