1. He has equipped himself, yet no soul has any means to repel
The arrival of its destined death by its weapons

2. A soul is close to having its life as its end
And if death touches it for long, its endurance is its eternity

3. And you will see the soul that labored for itself
When the soul cannot speak and its arteries die

4. And how much grace and favor is owed
To Abul Ashbal, as his generosity freed me

5. So I began walking on my two legs standing
On them, when previously sitting on them was prolonged

6. And how much grace and favor, O son of Abdullah
Through your hands upon me, its presence was not obscured

7. And how many domes you have built
Whose pillars' height is extended for those inhabiting it

8. Bajailah of Khalid built it with her hands
And through it obtained the highest level of increase

9. I found you rising above every tribe
When the peers of commandments were severe in their strength

10. And whenever Bajailah met a raid
Among you was its protector, and among you its chief

11. And you were, whenever women raised their skirts
To hasten in fear, among you were their lions

12. And Bajailah of Khalid has never spent a day
Without you leading her or among you one who leads her

13. When she donned armor and marched forth
To the clad in armor in a march that finds none to repel her

14. By my life, if Bajailah has spent the morning
Having demolished the people of glory, their glory
