فَيا أَخَوَينا مِن عِبادٍ وَمالِكٍ

أَلَم تَعلَما أَن كُلُّ مَن فَوقَها لَها

So my brothers of servants and angels

Don’t you know all above it belong to it

وَتَستَيقِنوا أَنّا أَخوكُم وَأَنَّنا

إِذا سَنَحَت شَهباءُ تَخشَونَ فالَها

And be certain we are your brothers and we

When meteors appear that you fear so stay calm

نُقيمُ لَها سوقَ الجِلادِ وَنَغتَلي

بِأَسيافِنا حَتّى نُوَجِّهَ خالَها

We will set up a whipping market and harvest

With our swords until we turn its markings

وَإِنَّ مَعَدّاً لَن تُجازَ بِفِعلِها

وَإِنَّ إِياداً لَم تُقَدِّر مِثالَها

And for sure Ma’adda will not be punished for her doings

And for sure Iyad did not determine its like

أَفي كُلِّ عامٍ بَيضَةٌ تَفقَؤونَها

فَتُؤذى وَتَبقى بَيضَةٌ لا أَخا لَها

Is it every year an egg you break

So it hurts and an egg stays that has no brother

وَلَو أَنَّ ما أَسرَفتُمُ في دِمائِنا

لَدى قَرَبٍ قَد وُكِّرَت وَأَنى لَها

And if what you wasted in our blood

Was paid back at a grave that bent, where can it go

وَكائِن دَفَعنا عَنكُمُ مِن مُلِمَّةٍ

وَكُربَةِ مَوتٍ قَد بَتَتنا عِقالَها

We were protecting you from disaster

And death’s anguish that confused our minds

وَأَرمَلَةٍ تَسعى بِشُعثٍ كَأَنَّها

وَإِيّاهُمُ رَبداءُ حَثَّت رِئالَها

And a widow walking disheveled as if

They are she-camels that rubbed off their fur

هَنَأنا وَلَم نَمنُن عَلَيها فَأَصبَحَت

رَخِيَّةَ بالٍ قَد أَزَحنا هُزالَها

Congratulations and we did not favor them so they became

Easy of crisis we removed its emaciation
