1. We brought the horses with humps on their backs
You can see them flying to the generous caller

2. With every Khuza'i when war takes off its dress
He wraps himself in it and puts on his armor

3. We rattled the armor in battle one evening
But they could not find a wide plain in which to take cover

4. We killed Abu Zayd and Zayd and 'Amir
And we aimed at 'Urwa and hit him with a piercing blow

5. We drove off the people's camels and their women
Who weep for a prisoner injured or captive taken away

6. The next morning we watered their land with their blood
And we drove off camels that yesterday were marked

7. Before that we herded dogs with a night raid
So we dragged them wounded in the blessed ruins

8. The shelters of Bekr bin 'Amir certainly knew
That we repel the attacker who stirs restlessly

9. That without any dowry but white camels and spears
We win the shelters of the tribes in marriage
