أَتاني أَنَّ هِندَاً أُختَ صَخرٍ

أَتاني أَنَّ هِندَاً أُختَ صَخرٍ

دَعَت دَركاً وَبَشَّرَتِ الهُنودا

دَعَت دَركاً وَبَشَّرَتِ الهُنودا

Word reached me that Hind, the sister of Sakhr,

A sister of Sakhra came and told me

News reached me that Hind, the sister of Sakhr,

Cried 'Vengeance!' and gave the Hinds glad tidings.

That the Indians had called up their army and brought glad tidings,

Called out for vengeance and brought glad tidings to her kin,

فَإِن تَفخَر بِحَمزَةَ حينَ وَلّى

فَإِن تَفخَر بِحَمزَةَ حينَ وَلّى

مَعَ الشُهَداءِ مُحتَسِباً شَهيداً

مَعَ الشُهَداءِ مُحتَسِباً شَهيداً

So if she boasts over Hamza when he departed

If you are proud of Hamza when he retreated,

So if she boasts of Hamza when he passed away,

With the martyrs, seeking God's reward, a martyr,

To join the martyrs, seeking martyrdom,

Among the martyrs, seeking God's reward, a martyr true,

فَإِنَّا قَد قَتَلنا يَومَ بَدرٍ

فَإِنَّا قَد قَتَلنا يَومَ بَدرٍ

أَبا جَهلٍ وَعُتبَةَ وَالوَليدا

أَبا جَهلٍ وَعُتبَةَ وَالوَليدا

Then we did indeed kill on the day of Badr

Then we, on the day of Badr, had killed

Then surely we, upon the Day of Badr, slew

Abu Jahl, Utbah, and al-Walid.

Abu Jahl, Utbah and al-Walid,

Abu Jahl, and Utbah, and Al-Walid,

وَقَتَّلنا سُراةَ الناسِ طُرّاً

وَقَتَّلنا سُراةَ الناسِ طُرّاً

وَغُنِّمنا الوَلائِدَ وَالعَبيدا

وَغُنِّمنا الوَلائِدَ وَالعَبيدا

And we slaughtered the people's chiefs, every one,

And we killed the best knights of mankind,

And we slaughtered the noblest chiefs, one and all,

And received the slave girls and male slaves as spoils.

And seized their women and slaves,

And gained the captive maidens and slaves as spoils,

وَشَيبَةَ قَد قَتَلنا يَومَ ذاكُم

وَشَيبَةَ قَد قَتَلنا يَومَ ذاكُم

عَلى أَثَوابِهِ عَلَقاً جَسيدا

عَلى أَثَوابِهِ عَلَقاً جَسيدا

And Shaybah we indeed killed on that day,

And we killed Shaybah on that day of yours,

And Shaybah, too, we killed on that day of yours,

With dried, clotted blood upon his garments.

Hanging from his clothes, slain,

With clotted gore caked thick upon his clothes,

فَبُوِّأَ مِن جَهَنَّمَ شَرَّ دارٍ

فَبُوِّأَ مِن جَهَنَّمَ شَرَّ دارٍ

عَلَيها لَم يَجِد عَنها مُحيدا

عَلَيها لَم يَجِد عَنها مُحيدا

So he was lodged in the worst abode of Hell;

So he was destined for the worst abode in Hell,

So he was lodged in Hell, the vilest home,

There he found no escape from it.

In it he found no refuge,

From which he found no refuge nor escape.

وَما سِيّانِ مَن هُوَ في جَحيمٍ

وَما سِيّانِ مَن هُوَ في جَحيمٍ

يَكونُ شَرابُهُ فيها صَديدا

يَكونُ شَرابُهُ فيها صَديدا

And not alike are one who is in Hellfire,

It is not equal, one who is in Hellfire,

And two are not alike: the one within the Fire,

Whose drink there is pus,

Drinking there boiling water,

Whose draught therein is festering, boiling pus,

وَمَن هُوَ في الجِنانِ يَدَرُّ فيها

وَمَن هُوَ في الجِنانِ يَدَرُّ فيها

عَلَيهِ الرِزقَ مُغتَبِطاً حَميدا

عَلَيهِ الرِزقَ مُغتَبِطاً حَميدا

And one who is in the Gardens, where there flows

And one who is in Paradise, living there happily,

And he who dwells in Gardens, where blessings flow

Sustenance upon him, while he is joyful and worthy of praise.

With sustenance pouring upon him, pleased and praiseworthy.

Upon him, blissful in his state and praised.
