ألا لستم منا ولا نحن منكم

برئنا إليكم من لؤي بن غالب

Indeed, you are not of us and we are not of you

We are innocent before you of Lu'ay, son of Ghalib

غدونا على نشز الحجاز وأنتم

بمنشب البطحاء بين الأخاشب

We attacked the elevated plains of Hejaz while you were

At the watering place of al-Bathaa’ between the grasses
