عَبدُ شَمسٍ أَبي فَإِن كُنتِ غَضبى

فَاِملَئي وَجهَكِ الجَميلَ خُدوشا

A slave of an angry father, so if you are angry

Then fill your beautiful face with scars

وَأَبي هاشِمٌ هُما وَلَداني

قَومَسٌ مَنصِبي وَلَم يَكُ خيشا

And my father Hashim, they gave birth to me

A high rank is my profession, and I was not unprepared

وَلَنا نَشرُها وَطيبُ ثَراها

وَبِنا سُمِّيَت قُرَيشٌ قُرَيشا

And we have its blossoming and good fragrance

And because of us Quraysh was named Quraysh

وأفأنا السُّبي من كل حي

وأقمنا كراكرا وكروشا

And should I be taken captive from every neighborhood?

And we resided as karakra and kurusha

وافتتحنا مدائنا الملك كسرى

واستبينا النبيط والاحبوشا

And we opened our cities which Chosroes ruled

And we sought Nabit and Al-Ahbush
