1. وأما الزبيرُ فأكفيكَهُ

    وطلحةُ يكفيكَهُ وحوحَه

    And as for Az-Zubayr, he is enough for you,

    And Talhah is enough for you and his folly,

  2. ويعلى بن منيةَ عن اللقاءِ

    كثيرُ التقلبِ والنحنحه

    And Yala ibn Umayyah avoids fighting,

    Frequently changing sides and humming.

  3. وعائشُ يكفيننا عقلُها

    وعائشُ في الناسِ مستفضحه

    And Aisha's mind is enough for us,

    And Aisha is disgraced amongst the people.

  4. ولن يُصلِحُ الأمر إلا الحسامُ

    كما يصلُحُ الجُبنُ بالإنفحَه

    And the matter will only be settled by the sword,

    As cheese is settled with rennet.

  5. ولا يستقيم بغيرِ القتالِ

    لمن جاءَ بالكنثِ ما أقبحَه

    And nothing will be settled except by fighting,

    For he who came with lies, how ugly it is!

  6. وأن لا هوادة حتى تكونَ

    أمورٌ لنا كُلُّها مصلحَه

    And there will be no truce until

    All our affairs are advantageous.
