بَقِيَّتُكُم عَمرٌ أَبَحناهُ بِالقَنا

بَقِيَّتُكُم عَمرٌ أَبَحناهُ بِالقَنا

بِيَثرِبَ نَحمي وَالحُماةُ قَليلُ

بِيَثرِبَ نَحمي وَالحُماةُ قَليلُ

Your remnant, ʿAmr—we slew him with spears.

Your lives are left a brief span, we cut them down with spears,

At Yathrib we defend, though the defenders are few.

In Yathrib little shelter could you gain against us here.

وَنَحنُ قَتَلناكُم بِكُلِّ مَهَنَّدٍ

وَنَحنُ قَتَلناكُم بِكُلِّ مَهَنَّدٍ

وَنَحنُ وُلاةُ الحَربِ حينَ نَصولُ

وَنَحنُ وُلاةُ الحَربِ حينَ نَصولُ

And we slew you with every Indian-forged sword.

When we attacked you boldly in battle after battle,

And we are the masters of war when we charge.

Smiting you with the keen-edged sword, we proved to be your bane.

وَنَحنُ قَتَلناكُم بِبَدرٍ فَأَصبَحَت

وَنَحنُ قَتَلناكُم بِبَدرٍ فَأَصبَحَت

مَعاشِرُكُم في الهالِكينَ تَجولُ

مَعاشِرُكُم في الهالِكينَ تَجولُ

And we slew you at Badr, and so

At Badr we did destroy you, and you in heaps on heaps now lie,

Your clans came to wander among the dead.

While all around the battle field your wailings loud outcry.
