وَأَنتَ اِبنُ أُختِ الصِدقِ يَومَ بُيوتُنا

وَأَنتَ اِبنُ أُختِ الصِدقِ يَومَ بُيوتُنا

بِكُتلَةَ إِذ سارَت إِلَينا القَبائِلُ

بِكُتلَةَ إِذ سارَت إِلَينا القَبائِلُ

And you were a worthy nephew, the day our dwellings

You, the son of the sister of truthfulness, on the day when our houses

Were at Kutlah, when the tribes marched against us,

Were all small, when the tribes marched against us,

بِحَيٍّ إِذا قيلَ اِظعَنوا قَد أُتيتُمُ

بِحَيٍّ إِذا قيلَ اِظعَنوا قَد أُتيتُمُ

أَقاموا فَلَم تُردَد عَلَيهِم حَمائِلُ

أَقاموا فَلَم تُردَد عَلَيهِم حَمائِلُ

Among a clan who, when told, “Depart! You have been attacked!”

In a district, if it were said 'Be ready,' would stand, with no cartridges returned against them.

Stood firm, and no sword-belts were cast back upon them.
