1. بَنو دارِمٍ يا اِبنَ المَراغَةَ أُسرَتي

    إِذا عُدَّ يَوماً عِزُّها وَنَفيرُها

    The sons of Darim, O son of al-Maraghah, are my clan,

    when its might and its fighting men are counted one day.

  2. مَكارِمُ ما كانَت كُلَيبٌ تَنالُها

    إِذا ما جَنا تَحتَ الطَويلِ قَصيرُها

    Noble deeds that Kulayb could never achieve,

    when its short one stooped beneath the tall one.

  3. وَدارِ حِفاظٍ قَد حَلَلنا وَغارَةٍ

    ضَرَبنا عَلَيها الخَيلَ تَدمى نُحورُها

    And many a field of honor have we camped upon, and many a raid

    we drove the horses against, their throats bleeding.

  4. صَبَرنا لَها حَتّى تَفَرَّجَ غُمُّها

    وَعادَ لَنا أَسلابُها وَكَبيرُها

    We stood firm against it until its gloom lifted,

    and its spoils and its chief fell to us.
