قُل لِأَبي حَمزَةَ هيدِ هيدِ

جِئناكَ بِالعادِيَة الصِنديدِ

Tell Abu Hamza, come, come,

We have brought you the fine Arabian horse,

بِالبَطَلِ القَرم أَبي الوَليدِ

فارِس قَيسٍ نَجدِها المَعدودِ

The heroic knight, father of Al-Walid,

The prized horseman of Qais, famed throughout Najd,

في خيلِ قَيسٍ وَالكماةِ الصّيدِ

كَالسَيفِ قَد سُلَّ مِنَ الغُمودِ

Among the steeds of Qais and hunting with arrows,

Like a sword unsheathed from its scabbard,

محضٍ هِجانٍ ماجِدِ الجُدودِ

في الفَرع مِن قَيسٍ وَفي العَمودِ

Pure and courageous, glorified ancestor,

Among the branches of Qais and in the family tree,

فدىً لعَبدِ الملكِ الحَميدِ

ما لي من الطّارِفِ وَالتَليدِ

A sacrifice for Abd al-Malik the Praiseworthy,

I have none like you among the noble clans,

يَومَ تُنادي الخَيلُ بِالصَعيدِ

كَأَنَّهُ في جَنَن الحَديدِ

The day the horses call out in the plain,

As if they are in the clanging of iron,

سيدٌ مُدِلّ بَذَّ كلَّ سيدِ

A master who has humbled all other masters.
