1. When will you come to us, complete us in our homes
You will find ample firewood and a raging fire

2. And an unpleasant dwelling, O Ibn Al-Zubayr
I prepared it late at night with packed saddlebags

3. For sincere young warriors, atop thoroughbred steeds as though
They were swords polished by Al-Masikhi and sharpened

4. When they emerge from darkness, they return to it
With their swords and stabbing until they find relief
