1. Jinns attacked the sanctity of the sky,
Or were they youths who flew on wings?

2. Every unruly one in the air, his reins
Are the fury of the winds and its saddle, the storm.

3. It seeks the veil of the sun, it wants from it
Glory that ancestors bore and marched on.

4. Nothing remains of it or the civilization of its time
Except faint voices and minarets.

5. The saying of generations did not catch up with them
Nor did any builder or digger reach them.

6. They rose above the valley under the banner of their time,
For each time has a banner and motto.

7. Two, then you see many eagles
From every direction, each has its nest.

8. The secret of success and the pillar of civilization
Are ambitions from senior volunteers.

9. With the heroes of the sky, a heroism was copied
On earth, its pillar is about to collapse.

10. This is a time when neither spears are homes
For valor in it, nor tongues homes.

11. Valor is nothing but two wings of a kidnapper
On land and sea named the aviator.

12. Do you see safety in the sky and its shade
Or does colonialism rage in the sky?

13. The sanctuary of guidance and truth - its glory spree -
And tomorrow and evening, destruction is on its sides.

14. O you who brings mirage to the desert, filling it
With delusions and filling its dust with dangers.

15. One night of courageous resolve is enough for you
Dawn and dusk have passed with its perils for you.

16. When you relied on the wing, you wrapped
Your hand and the deserts turned their eyes.

17. In every desert and every oasis
The land envies you from the sky.

18. Beautiful ones, even if they did not excuse you, would have offered
From the tongue of your wounds, excuses.

19. To God belongs your saddle in the sky, it is
The saddle of the crescent, no dust is upon it.

20. An eclipse occurred but did not affect it
No dishonor is upon the crescent from an eclipse.

21. Or have you not stepped on the land of the sky or known
Where suns and moons rotate?

22. Abu Al-Fadl threw his gaze towards you
And a nation and its lands were busy with you.

23. A king you were pitied for his proximity and neighborhood
As if you were a neighbor of Providence.

24. The canopy was erected and it drizzled and eyes
Flew in the air touching your figure.

25. So you touched the destinies of the sky and they appeared
Until their faces, the fates, looked.

26. A destiny on his right hand is safety for you
Where you inclined and in the sky is misfortune.

27. So if you fell on glowing iron
The iron collided but the fire did not touch you.

28. What did you encounter from all calamities?
Tell me, do you have revenge against calamities?

29. This one stumbles in the bridle and that one does not
Proceed and another wanders in conduct.

30. Failure is magnified like success over it from
The honor of wounds and the light of them, pride.

31. If there were no dead and wounded in the fray
The cave of the victorious would not be known.
