تَنافَسَ فيهِ الحَزمُ وَالبَأسُ وَالتُقى

تَنافَسَ فيهِ الحَزمُ وَالبَأسُ وَالتُقى

وَبَذلُ اللُها حَتّى اِصطَبَحنَ ضَرائِرا

وَبَذلُ اللُها حَتّى اِصطَبَحنَ ضَرائِرا

Resolve, valor, and piety vied within him,

In it compete determination, valor, and piety

And lavish giving, until they took their morning draught as rival wives.

And they sacrificed themselves until they became martyrs
