Cry over Al-Hajjaj, your hope in him has failed

ابك على الحجاج عولك ما دجا

1. Cry over Al-Hajjaj, your hope in him has failed
The night is dark, and the day has not dawned

١. اِبكِ عَلى الحَجّاجِ عَولَكَ ما دَجا
لَيلٌ بِظُلمَتِهِ وَلاحَ نَهارُ

2. The tribes of Nizar certainly mourned you
Their hearts grieved for you, burning hot

٢. إِنَّ القَبائِلَ مِن نِزارٍ أَصبَهَت
وَقُلوبُها جَزَعاً عَلَيكَ حِرارُ

3. My longing for you when the slanderers were in dire straits
They left the spear behind, and their heights were made short

٣. لَهفي عَلَيكَ إِذا الطِعانُ بِمَأزِقٍ
تَرَكَ القَنا وَطِوالُهُنَّ قِصارُ

4. Indeed the calamity from Thaqif is destruction
It left the eyes sleepless and their slumber disturbed

٤. إِنَّ الرَزِيَّةَ مِن ثَقيفٍ هالِكٌ
تَرَكَ العُيونَ وَنَومُهُنَّ غِرارُ
