1. If Nu'man returns, we will rejoice and be delighted,
And Ma'dan will come back with its kingdom and spring,

2. And the kingdom and protection will return to Ghassan,
And those hopes - if only we could achieve them!

3. But if Nu'man perishes, his riding animal will be stripped,
And his remains will be cast beside destruction,

4. And another horse will stumble at the end of night,
Its ribs almost or completely crushed.

5. Following the best of people, if he is destroyed,
And if his resting place is beside the young woman.
