1. By your life, it never ceases to cross my mind
With the Romans, war with spears and blades
١. لَعَمرُكَ ما يَنفَكُّ يَخطُرُ بَينَنا
مَعَ الرومِ حَربُ بِالقَنا وَالمَناصِلِ
2. We battle them with death before their daughters
The battle of lions, furious heroes
٢. نُقارِعُهُم بِالمَوتِ دونَ بَناتِهِم
مُقارَعَةَ الأُسدِ الغِضابِ البَواسِلِ
3. So my eyes never saw bargaining for their daughters
A lute with us or seeking long goals
٣. فَلَم تَرَ عَيني كَاِقتِضاءِ بَناتِهِم
لَوِترٍ لَدَينا أَو طِلابِ الطَوائِلِ
4. When we kill their men with swords
They seek from us, with deadly glances
٤. إِذا ما قَتَلنا بِالسُيوفِ رِجالَها
تَقاضَينَ مِنّا بِالعُيونِ القَواتِلِ
