I am the sword; my failure to cut is not feared,
I am the sword, my prophecy is not to be feared,
when the keen blade’s failure to cut was feared.
For I have filled the prophecy of the punisher,

My affiliation is with Dhu al-Qifar, just as
My pride is to the one in the deserts, as
my companion claims affiliation with Haydar.
My companion takes pride in Haydar.
