1. وَاِسأَلوا سَيِّدَ الفَريقينِ حُجراً

    يَومَ سارَت جُموعُنا بِاِحتِفالِ

    And ask Ḥujr, lord of the two hosts,

    On the day our forces marched in full strength,

  2. مَن رَماهُ عَلى الفُؤادِ بِسَهمٍ

    فَتَقَت عَنهُ مُحكَمَ السِربالِ

    Who shot him in the heart with an arrow,

    Tearing open the well-wrought coat of mail he wore?
