لَقَد أَمسى بَنو لِحيانَ مِنّي

بِحَمدِ اللَهِ في خِزىٍ مُبينِ

The people of Banu Lihian have truly been shamed by me,

By the grace of God, in clear dishonor.

جَزَيتُهُم بِما أَخَذوا تِلادي

بَني لِحيانَ كَيلا يَحرَبوني

I repaid them for attacking my people,

The people of Banu Lihian, so they would not fight me again.

تَخِذتُ غَرازَ إِثرَهُم دَليلاً

وَفَرّوا في الحِجازِ لِيُعجِزوني

I followed their footsteps as a guide,

And they fled into Hejaz to evade me.

وَقَد عَصَّبتُ أَهلَ العَرجِ مِنهُم

بِأَهلِ صُوائِقٍ إِذ عَصّبوني

And I have united the people of al-‘Arj among them

With the people of Suwaik, when they united against me.
