1. And when Qasim appears before you on the day of battle,

    striding proudly, you would think a lamp stood before him.

  2. And when he revels in the iron mace and bends it,

    you would think the mace in his palm a handkerchief.

  3. And when he takes up a rock to crush it,

    it turns in his two hands to a dune of loose, flowing sand.

  4. They say he strings two horsemen together with a single thrust

    on the day of battle, and deems it no great feat.

  5. Do not marvel if the reach of his spear were a mile—

    when he strings the horsemen out for a mile.
