1. O people of Jazirat, neither patience benefits you
Nor does refraining, so the cautious one is rescued by fear
١. يا أَهلَ جُزرَةَ لا حِلمٌ فَيَنفَعُكُم
أَو تَنتَهُنَ فَيُنجي الخائِفَ الحَذَرُ
2. O people of Jazirat, I have set up for you
The mangonel, when the stone is unleashed
٢. يا أَهلَ جُزرَةَ إِنّي قَد نَصَبتُ لَكُم
بِالمَنجَنيقِ وَلَمّا يُرسَلِ الحَجَرُ
