صَوارِمُهُم عُلِّقَت بِالكُشوحِ

مَكانَ تَمائِمِهِم وَالعِوَذ

Their swords are hung on the shoulders

Where their talismans and amulets used to be

وَما يَمنَعُ الخائِفينَ الحِمامَ

لُبسُ دُروعِهِمُ وَالخُوَذ

And what prevents the frightened ones from fleeing

Is their wearing of armor and helmets
