Did you not see that on the day of sorrow's visit

ألم تر أنا يوم حنو ضرية

1. Did you not see that on the day of sorrow's visit
We defended it and said: Captives are not to be divided!

١. أَلَم تَرَ أَنّا يَومَ حِنوِ ضَرِيَّةٍ
حَمَينا وَقُلنا السَبيُ لا يُتَقَسَّمُ

2. We pitched our tents upon the peaks of heaven,
With foundations no torrent could wash away.

٢. ضَرَبنا بِأَكنافِ السَماءِ بُيوتَنا
عَلى ذِروَةٍ أَركانُها لا تُهَدَّمُ

3. We milked down upon them death in streaming showers,
Until they were cut down and removed from our midst.

٣. حَلَبنا بِأَخلافِ السَماءِ عَلَيهِمُ
شَآبيبُ مَوتٍ تَستَهِلُّ وَتَرزِمُ
