1. A quarter of the tribe of Jusham
Each of its homes a Khiffan

2. Around it a bare plain
With white antelope and mountain cows

3. The desert trembles when they ride
As if the ground were a dancing place

4. They wrongfully attacked without cause
So the people's protector is the betrayer

5. We were left with only promises
While the harbinger of dawn is hasty

6. A raid in which the swords quench their thirst
And the whole army is thirsty

7. Their horses shook the spears
As if they were swaying cypress trees

8. Our courage humiliated them
So the most courageous warriors surrendered

9. We are a people of the Mudar tribe
Our ancestry in pride is Adnan

10. Haughty, though wronged, standing tall
Humble, though people are brothers

11. Our fire on the mountains is a guide
For travelers and riding caravans

12. Every meal is plentiful
And on moving day it is packed

13. The gathering place shines for us
With strange faces and crowns

14. A people whose company is no rabble
Their beauty is kindness and grace

15. Orators who overlook no eloquence
In clear speech delivery

16. And kings whom kings
Obey in carrying out commands

17. The cup of life envies their hands
And the night breeze is infatuated

18. Like pleasure of religion it envies him
Plunged in seas of bounty drowning

19. Bestower of the world apologetically
Where giving a pittance seems obliging

20. Asleep to all dishonor
While awake in the highest heaven

21. A rain for drought and yet a torrent
A lion in war and raging

22. A generosity whose spring was never muddied
Toward the needy soft and shining
