1. سَأَبكي وان لَم تَبكِ فِتيانُ مَذحِجٍ

    فَتاها إِذا اللَيلُ التِمّامُ تأوَّبا

    I will weep even if the youths of Mudhij do not weep

    For him when the night is complete and dark

  2. فَتى لَم يَكُن في مِرَّةِ الحَربِ جاهِلا

    وَلا بِمُطيعٍ في الوَغى من تَهَيَّبا

    A youth who was never ignorant in the heat of battle

    Nor with a submissive one in the fray who was made to cower

  3. أَبانَ أُنوفَ الحَيِّ قَحطانَ قَتلُهُ

    وَأَنفَ نِزارٍ قَد أَبانَ فَأَوعَبا

    He made known the noses of Hayy Qahtan by killing him

    And Anf Nazar's nose which he made known and then broke

  4. فَمَن يَكُ أَمسى خائِناً لأَميرهِ

    فَما خانَ ابراهيمُ في المَوتِ مُصعَبا

    So whoever proves to be a traitor to his emir in the evening

    Ibrahim did not betray Mus'ab in death
