1. قُل لِعَبدِ العُزّى أَخي وَشَقيقي

    وَبَني هاشِمٍ جَميعاً عِزينا

    Tell ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā, my brother and full brother,

    and all the sons of Hāshim, in their bands,

  2. وَصَديقي أَبي عِمارَةَ وَالإِخـ

    ـوانِ طُرّاً وَأُسرَتي أَجمَعينا

    and my friend Abū ʿImārah, and the brothers,

    all of them, and my entire family:

  3. فَاِعلَموا أَنَّني لَهُ ناصِرٌ

    وَمُجِرٌّ بِصَولَتي الخاذِلينا

    Know, then, that I am his supporter,

    and with my onslaught I subdue those who forsake him.

  4. فَاِنصُروهُ لِلرحمِ وَالنَسَبِ الأَد

    نى وَكونوا لَهُ يَداً مُصلِتينا

    So support him for kinship and the closest ties of blood,

    and be a hand for him, with swords drawn.
