1. My eyes could not sleep, so I stayed awake
Beware tomorrow, lest it bring harm

2. When the star appears as the sunset of the sun leaning
And there was no light in the horizons to illuminate it

3. If the sky was nothing but an arena
Like a spider web illuminating it

4. So the rescue knew that we are its elite
When the secrets were disclosed, its affairs

5. When the wind came from fearful fronts
And twisted in the robes of homes, their chests

6. And we spend money without any doubt
And we do not complain in years for its harm

7. When the people's dogs fled their master
And it was hard on the weak guest, their dens

8. So I am the brave one, my home protected
I am generous when the soul narrows its conscience

9. And my dogs are provoked and trained
Little to whoever tries to make them growl

10. And my pot does not complain when people find fault
I move it from time to time as its master

11. And I bring out my pot in the open, little of it
Its full is seen and not suspected of it

12. And my camels pledge to be generous
Restless in front of the house when aroused

13. I consult the soul of generosity until it obeys me
And I leave the soul of stinginess, I do not consult it

14. And there is no barrier on my fire to hide it
From one lurking at night, but I illuminate it

15. By your father, my neighbor's son does not remain
Circling around our pot however he maneuvers

16. And my neighbor does not complain about me except
When her husband is away from her, I do not visit her

17. She will know my goodness, and her husband will return to her
And she did not lack my veils upon her

18. And horses competing in spearing which I witnessed
And if I were not among them, their excuse would be miserable

19. And a sea of death without any calmness
The chests of the valiant would be its bridges

20. We were patient with it in its groaning and afflictions
With our swords until its flow of pus poured forth

21. And the barefoot, disheveled hair, as if they are
The jinn's sons, their pots never cooked

22. Umaymah witnessed that we
Are the people of war, its light intensified when we unsheathed it

23. On a sturdy, severe, barren, trustworthy horse
Whose legs stomp showing no fear

24. And I swore I will not give a king my darkness
While around me are foes, old and young

25. They refused me the highborn captives
The generous provided for them, the poor acquired them

26. And a fine, slender one whom young men vied over
One of them had loosened her belt
