1. لَمّا رَأَوها وَعَلَونا نَشزا

    هَزَّ جَناحَيهِ إِلَيها هَزّا

    When they saw it and we climbed a rise,

    He shook his two wings toward it,

  2. كَما هَزَزتَ النَيزَكَ المُرتَزّا

    يَحُزُّ أَعناقَ الرِياحِ حَزّا

    As you shook the firmly planted short spear;

    He slices through the necks of the winds,

  3. وَسامَها قَبضاً وَنَقراً وَخَزا

    يَطلُبُ في رُؤوسِهِنَّ كَنزا

    And assailed it with gripping, pecking, and piercing,

    He seeks a treasure in their heads.
