The marked ones witnessed with the Prophet

شهدن مع النبي مسومات

1. The marked ones witnessed with the Prophet
At Hunain while gushing blood from all sides

١. شَهِدنَ مَعَ النَبِيِّ مُسَوَّماتٍ
حُنَيناً وَهيَ دامِيَةُ الحَوامي

2. And Khalid's battle which she witnessed and related
Its battles over the sacred town

٢. وَوَقَعةَ خالِدٍ شَهِدت وَحَكَّت
سَنابِكَها عَلى البَلدِ الحَرامِ

3. We expose our cheeks to the swords at every frontier
Cheeks not exposed to reproach

٣. نُعَرِّضُ لِلسُيوفِ بِكُلِّ ثَغرٍ
خُدوداً ما تُعَرَّضُ لِلطامِ

4. And I do not take off my garb from me
When the archers flee and do not shoot back

٤. وَلَستُ بِخالِعٍ عَنّي ثِيابي
إِذا هَرَّ الكَماةُ وَلا أُرامي

5. But the skilful sword wanders under me
To raids with the sharp cutting blade

٥. وَلَكِنّي يَجولُ المُهرُ تَحتي
إِلى الغاراتِ بِالعَضبِ الحُسامِ
