1. A virtuous eulogy from me will reach
Sufyan ibn Amr in the valley of generosity

2. A generous Hawazin chief and leader of my people
Surpassing all in noble deeds

3. You will not find a people, when
They excel in loyalty, like the people of Hajar

4. They are the most prestigious and lofty when
The tribes convene for every matter

5. They refused to betray and their father
Hanifah refused to forsake on the day of pride

6. And Hanifah does not invoke when facing
The red-hot lash of the clan of Bakr

7. But they attach themselves to their father
Hanifah on the day of fierce combat and patience

8. And if it were the Abyssinians when facing a lash
In the hands of their peers and pagan swords

9. They would defend their sanctity with blows
Like the mouths of burrowing rats - what cowardice!

10. But they fought a generous king
They who routed the tribes on the day of Badr
