War's millstone has begun to turn.
The war has turned its mill,
So repel it with my millstone.
So repel it with my mill,

لَيسَ ذا حينُ وَنائي
And set it ablaze, O Bakr!
And kindle it, O Bakr's sons!
This is no time for me to falter.
This is no time for separation.
وَاِنظُرونيand watch me حينَwhen أَعدوI run

ثُمَّ كونوا مِن وَرائي
And watch me as I charge,
And watch me as I attack,
Then be behind me.
Then follow close behind.
