1. I say, and it adds to my agony and anger,
God has removed the rule of the sons of Ziyad,
١. أَقولُ وَزادَني جَزَعاً وَغيظاً
أَزالَ اللَهُ مُلكَ بَني زيادِ
2. And banished them for their treachery and betrayal,
As Thamud and the people of Aad were banished,
٢. وَأَبعَدَهُم بِما غَدَروا وَخانوا
كَما بَعَدَت ثَمودُ وَقومُ عادِ
3. And their mounts did not return to them,
When they stopped on the day of calling.
٣. وَلا رَجَعَت رِكابُهُمُ إِلَيهِم
إِذا وَقَفَت إِلى يَومِ التَنادِ
