1. Do you know the house whose traces have been effaced
Beyond you towards the torrential, pouring valleys

2. Between the stony ground and the sandy plains
And the winds blowing through the mountain passes

3. I asked about that place but she was perplexed
Not knowing who was asking and seeking

4. Leave alone a house whose traces are gone
And weep for Hamza, man of the spears

5. When the dust storms swirl violently
In the waning years that are fleeting

6. The one who leaves his spear by his spear
Stumbling with enfeebled joints that are wasting

7. And the one who charges his horses when they stampede
Like a lion in the thickets, undaunted and bold

8. A shining white Hashimite in the high peaks
Who never passed by falsehood, upholding the truth

9. What's a martyr to do among your spears
That paralyze the hands of a vicious killer

10. A man was betrayed among ravaging armies
Surrounding, vicious, relentlessly toiling

11. The earth darkened when he left
And the light of the radiant moon was extinguished

12. May Allah bless you in a lofty, honored Garden
For those entering, joyful and gracious

13. We saw Hamza as a refuge protecting us
From every matter that afflicted and opposed

14. In Islam he was unfailing and sound
No weakness or frailty making him fall

15. Don't rejoice, O Hind, and pretend to cry
Shedding tears and moaning like a bereft mother

16. Weep for Utbah when he was sliced by the sword
Under the crushing, overwhelming blows

17. When an elder of yours fell in folly
With a heart ignorant of what was right

18. Hamza drove them back in droves
Walking under the swaying spearheads

19. The next morning Gabriel was his minister
Excellent minister for the brave cavalier
