هُمُ غدوره كي يكونوا مكانه

هُمُ غدوره كي يكونوا مكانه

كما غدرت قدماً بكسرى مرازبه

They betrayed him so that they could take his place,

They betrayed him to take his place

As you betrayed Kisra by ruining his palace

بنوا هاشم ردوا سلاح ابن عمكم

ولا تنهبوه ما تحل مناهبه

And do not plunder what is unlawful to plunder
