1. The length of your night persisted in worship
Until pillars appeared for the morning dawn

2. I remained sad, watching the stars
And my iron arms ached

3. I hoped for the generous one, full of delight
Among the people, collecting resolve and munificence

4. His leadership grew, and Al-Harith's sons
Until he slowly gained new precedence

5. Like the lead of a steed on the day of betting
He nurtured lifelong glory

6. So gather ransom for your father and mother
For how you were among us, seeking good

7. And gather my bounty upon Hatem
And present it from a witnessing pillar

8. Is death nearer, for I did not know
Any fault of mine, though I fear threats

9. So do good, no shame in what you have done
You give life to ancestors and absolve ancestors
