1. You struck them with a frown, then granted them favor,
And from the clan of Badr you have slain the elders.

2. If they are grateful, gratitude is but basic piety,
And if they disbelieve, I do not mind, O Zayd, their disbelief.

3. You left the waters of Tameem empty and ruined,
With what you see among them, encampments overturned.

4. And you revived the wanderers of Banu Sulaym,
When just yesterday you had killed ‘Amir.
