So you proved neither a weakling nor a coward,
Neither weak nor cowardly were you found,
On the morning when the long spears reached for you.
When the long swords quenched their thirst at dawn.

When men retreat, you stand firm until
You yourself plunged into what the men feared,
You join what made those men retreat and withdraw.

With a Mashrafi sword, despite the piercing blades,
Whose two blade-faces were polished bright along the edges.
He bared the edges of its polished hilt.
