Do you know who denied the flowers water

أتدري من منعت ورود حوض

1. Do you know who denied the flowers water
From a pure spring where honorable men dwelt?

١. أَتَدري مَن مَنَعتَ وُرودَ حَوضٍ
سَليلٍ خَضارِمٍ سَكَنوا البِطاحا

2. Did they forbid the caravan or Hisham
and the two spears - did their weapons forbid them?

٢. أَزادَ الرَكبِ تَمنعُ أم هِشاماً
وَذا الرُمحَينِ أَمنَعَهُم سِلاحا

3. They denied the sands, not out of spite
With their swords and bright blades that clash

٣. هُمُ مَنَعوا الأَباطِحَ دونَ فِهرٍ
وَمَن بِالخَيفِ وَالبُدُن اللِقاحا

4. With blows below their egg-shaped shields
When the terrified man sought refuge and cried aloud

٤. بِضَربٍ دونَ بَيضَتِهم طِلَخفٍ
إِذا المَلهوفُ لاذَ بِهم وَصاحا

5. You don't know which of them you will meet
With high spirits and spears raised high

٥. وَما تَدري بِأَيِهّم تُلاقي
صُدورَ المَشرفِيّةِ وَالرِماحا
