1. Is that or a palm tree's tooth sprouting
In the valleys of Qura, where returning eyes roam

2. It has disheveled, fibrous fronds, as though
They were the trim of a cloak, woven by skilled hands

3. When one of our leaders dies, after him
Rises a successor, excelling in rule

4. One of his sons, and blood defends its branch
On its root, and blood contends against blood
