1. Futaymah said, solve your poety praising him
After Kindah, will you praise a tribe?

2. The generous are Bani Khadram, sublime
Of Sumayda', be kind with that, my friend

3. O you who seek to attain our glory
May your mother be bereft of you, will you return a corpse?

4. Will you climb to the sky on a ladder?
You will surely return humiliated to the Almighty

5. Ask the clan of the King of Kings when they meet
We and you, may the ignorant not live

6. Of us is he who ruled the people by force
Who ruled the expanse, so ask the minds about that

7. And his sons who inherited his kingdom
Young warriors, chiefs and elders

8. They said to him: Are you a judge, what do you see?
We see this position unfit for you

9. So he judged for each tribe according to their treaties
He did not wrong them in their reign an iota

10. So he rested and bequeathed the rule of those who trod the pebbles
His father had taken by force and tyranny

11. Ask the clan of Asad about the killing of their lord
Hujr son of Umm Qatam, an exalted martyr

12. When the crowned dignitary marched with armies
Whinnying in the desert responding to neighs

13. Until he had the horses trample their land
Healing yet increasing the simmering anguish

14. Their shields kindled the fire that clad them in flames
A king who justified quenching it ardently

15. The whites he forced into intense heat
And that sufficed to punish the enemies

16. After prohibiting them, they became permitted to him
Or that he contaminate them with washing

17. Until he permitted ravaging their homes, so he destroyed them
And they wandered astray, unable to find a path
