شَفى النَفسَ قَتلى بَينَ رَوضَةِ سَلهَبٍ

وَغَرَّهُمُ فيما أَرادَ المُنَجَّبُ

The souls were revived by those killed in the meadow of Salhab

And they were deceived into what the well-known desired

وَجُدنا لِجودِيٍّ بِضَربَةِ ثائِرِ

وَلِلجَمعِ بِالسُمِّ الزعافِ المُقَنَّبِ

We were generous to Jawdiyy with the strike of the raging

And to the group with the poisoned arrows, well-aimed

تَرَكناهُمُ صَرعى لِخَيلٍ تَنوبُهُم

تَنافَسُهُم فيها سُباعُ المُرَحَّبِ

We left them slain to horses that took turns trampling them

While predatory beasts competed over them in the wilderness
