1. Qurayza met what they did not expect,
And found no helper against humiliation.

2. A calamity befell them, in which
The fate of Banu Nadir was repeated.

3. In the morning he came walking towards them,
The Messenger of Allah, like the shining moon.

4. He had cavalry, galloping,
With horsemen on them like hawks.

5. We left them and they gained nothing,
Their blood upon them like perfume.

6. So they lay dead with birds hovering over them -
Thus is judged the shameless traitor.

7. So convey a similar advice to Quraysh,
From the Merciful, if they accept my warning.
