1. With my determination the horizons fill
And in it the passages of time meander

2. A tender determination suckling the teats of spearheads
Where it suckles the pure milk of resoluteness

3. How many fiery sermons have I split open their conscience
And shed in their blood the blood of agonies

4. And the night tearing its shirt from the dawn
I almost mended it with the striking of my horse

5. And its stars appear to be the faces of warriors
Veiled by helmets with chin straps

6. And I emerged at the rear of their ranks after
Drowsiness had seized the turbans of the riders

7. In a skirmish, the expert polished its blades
It never desisted from abundant showers of blows

8. A land is a horse from the touch of life
And the land praises it unlike any horse

9. Then with the rain a small cloud drizzled over it
And quenched the thirst of barrenness with sprinkling

10. So the live folded the coolness of emaciation and blossomed
The rags of the plain below the branches

11. And it seemed the breaths of the morning breeze in its embrace
Spill tears of sorrow into the ponds

12. A tear, when it overflowed, depicted eyes
Where it settled among the betrayals

13. And you see among its leaves does roaming
Below the gazelle the fawns scattered

14. And how many knots of rhetoric have I tied with a sermon
Which untied by its decisiveness the knots of events

15. I have an ambition I have set out to meet at the spearheads
In pursuit of a day of struggle and wager

16. If it fought the horizon of the sky it would separate
Between the Pleiades in it and the tail of Scorpio

17. The title of my heroism is that my song rants
And the shame of my enemy is that my tongue is long

18. Do not join me with time, for it
Is a rod that scratches its pair with its pair

19. I observe this world shunning
An abode and the desolation of mankind

20. I pace with the fervor of a knight whose sword
Splits the flock of doves when the groups meet

21. Of the kin of Adnan whom it sufficed
That the son of Moses is from the sons of Adnan

22. Descending when the spears collide
And the whites of their eyes burst from their eyelids

23. Cramming the mouths of valleys when they are aroused
United by the excellence of the brave

24. They wore turbans after they saw their swords
Will ever humiliate the crowns of kings

25. Whenever Hussein called them with his steeds
Their ears were crowded in obedience to him

26. Frequent in rising, transforming,
The words of eloquence from honest resolutions

27. A lion through whom the spears shed the blood of spears
With the blood of the people of polytheism and oppression

28. When they were terrified by the breaking in the assaults
He made hearts the amulets of breastplates

29. Were it not for him, the wolf would not be imprinted for contention
Nor would the spear be cut off for a stabber

30. By God, your day at Ghadir, it is a day
In which the sons of Ghaylan are enflamed

31. With the fortress, when the spears summoned their breastplates
And took refuge in the souls of the horsemen

32. The waters of their faces diminished in fear of devastation
So it was as if they spilled into the eyelids

33. You woke them with a hand that topples with the wolves
And a hand that pounds on the tops of lances

34. Sinewy, shaking its blade, taking it
In stabbing, and recurrent to the kinsmen

35. You cut off the breaths of the doves in its course
Until they fell into madness and bodies

36. As if the spears went astray in the fray
Until they bent, dodging every wing

37. And the horses stumbling between the tips of the spears
Dyed with the blood of sincere hearts

38. The arrows concealed their feathers so it was as if
They armed themselves for you with the darkness of night

39. If the breaths of the winds rose
In its pounding, they would have flown with the vultures

40. You penetrated the darkness toward them with columns
That probed the hearts of the fires

41. And you frightened them an awful fright in their night with swords
And joined the bonds of dawn with flashes

42. The darkness submitted and you set up the necks of the enemies
Facing the attainment of subjugated ones

43. So you left them lifeless in every desolate place
And it was as if they were thunderstruck on the chins

44. The eagles hide their bodies with their descent
From the sights of the fox and the falcon

45. Their claws ripped open the wounds as if
With ripping they probe the impact of every fang

46. Until you returned with youths who pulverized the spears
And threw with every skillful flexible sword

47. If they were able and reached every cultivated one
Who in stabbing poisons every bane

48. A lion whom the lions copied, their steeds
Incited with attack, strike, and stab

49. If they were tied together in the battle
They would be for him a replacement for citadels

50. Your event, O son of Adnan, which
Pulled with the wolf of religion and faith

51. If the cutting blades of the enemies were not loosened they would have tied
With the bonds of hearts the saddlebags of sorrows

52. Its string was tied so its knots were from honest speech
And its bags were from a craft and meanings

53. It is a seed I speckled it from my conscience
White oozing the thickness of thirst
