1. I have no fear of Na'aman the gazelle hunter
Who wounds my heart however he may contrive

2. So much has he pierced my heart and brow
With his spears and sword from his quiver

3. I've hated him, loathing his affection
As generosity loathes the nature of Ibn 'Auf

4. I wish for his comfort as one who wishes
For the driving away of gadflies in summer's heat

5. Were it not for the salafist protector among us
We would not feel safe from any fear

6. A leader, if we ask him for greatness
Refuses to put us off with 'later'

7. The Nauruz has come, so delight in it
With honor intact, free from blemish or fraud
