1. Tell the one obsessed with tying horses,
And who has not aimed for camels,

2. Do not cover up war with other than resolve,
With limbs proportional like a rope.

3. With a bare forehead,
A towering neck, balanced.

4. With wide cheeks,
And wide temples and jaws.

5. With a short back, short eyes,
Short neck without bend.

6. With a long neck,
Complete long thighs.

7. With long arms and fingers,
A long tail without trim.

8. With sharp hearing, a sharp heart,
Sharp shoulders and elbows.

9. With inflated ribs, a tense back,
A supple loin with loose hips.

10. With a clean, uncut penis,
Unsplit hooves without weakness.

11. He listens to war crying
When the pens strike after work.

12. A horse running into the distance as
He runs close by without stop.

13. So meet the horses when
They come like gazelles of the plateau.

14. And beware the startled and those
With canine aggression and odd legs.

15. Protect the legs his pride,
Finery adorns the brother of default.

16. Aid the wronged, and those with
Deformity in horses and twist.

17. Those with defects without deceit,
Opposites of pride without barrier.

18. So bare faced without defect,
Is beauty unquestioned and unblemished.

19. And so defect without pride,
Is blame in horses so do not exalt.

20. Inherent flaw is not a fault,
So ride it and do not reject.

21. Long backed and short bellied,
That is a saddle most traveled.

22. And if its forearms are muscular,
That is the look of blindness.

23. When the hind legs are weak,
A fault never remedied or solved.

24. So boast of the king of the land,
Solomon the brave hero.

25. And I am skilled in horse gaits,
If you doubt, then ask.

26. I am the best of Yemen,
And kings of nations and states.

27. All kingdoms are indebted to us,
And the cause of hope is entrusted to us.
