1. Do the sons of Al-Liqita think we are not like them in horsemanship?
That we are people who do not see killing as glory,

2. Nor do we retreat when faced with spears in battle?
That we give food to guests from spherical bowls,

3. And strike the necks of fleet-footed camels?
We return the conceited teachers when they transgress

4. With blows that humiliate the lazy ones' arrogance.
With every protector of truth, glorious and brave,

5. Noble, like the reddish coats of young camels.
They defend their people and tribes

6. With white swords that lead death under the banners.
So ask the sons of Badr when you meet them,

7. What the brothers did on the day of battle.
When you go out, conceal who you met,

8. But do not conceal your news in gatherings.
And say we missed the claws of Khader’s tents,

9. By it is shameful, when one does not fight.
