1. And we refused our father to settle in his darkness
And we strengthened every weakness of the matter

2. And how many unwilling fathers we robbed of will
With our swords until he stood firm in hardship

3. With a blow that removes resolve from his dwellings
And a stab with the edges of the reddened sword

4. And from the followers of al-Mukhtar before we quenched them
With blows upon their skulls dispelling sorcery
