1. Tomorrow the people of the valley of metaphor will leave before dawn
While the neighbor of Ibn Harb remains in the fortified dwelling

2. Like the clothes of Hisham ibn al-Walid
So carry out and procure the likes of them anew afterwards

3. He accomplished a pressing need for them, so he began the day unencumbered
While you began the day relaxed, neither shrinking nor exceeding

4. If only the elders at Badr, whose presence bore witness,
Could see the saddles of the horses cinched and returning

5. Nothing prevented the camel train their repaired waterskin
Nor did Hind prevent her father's sword in its sheath
