يا آلَ تَميمٍ أَلا لِلَّهِ أُمُّكُمُ

لَقَد رُميتُم بِإِحدى المُصمئِلّاتِ

O clan of Tamim, by Allah, he is your protector

You have been hit with one of the fatal blows

فَاِستَشعِروا بِثِيابِ اللُؤمِ وَاِعتَرِفوا

إِن لَم تَروعوا بَني أَفصى بِغاراتِ

So dress yourselves in the garments of infamy and confess

If you are not deterred, O sons of eloquence, by raids

وَتَقتُلوا بِفَتى الفِتيانِ قاتِلَهُ

أَو تُقتَلونَ جَميعاً غَيرَ أَشتاتِ

And you kill the killer of the best of young men

Or you all die, scattered, not united

لَلَّهِ دَرُّ فَتىً مَرّوا بِهِ أُصُلاً

مُهَشَّمَ الوَجهِ مَكسورَ الثَنِيّاتِ

Praise Allah for a young man they passed by

His face mutilated, his bones broken

راحوا بِأَبيَضَ مِثلِ البَدرِ يَحمِلُهُ

غُتمُ العُلوجِ بَأَقيادٍ مُذِلّاتِ

They took away the one white like the full moon

The slaves of injustice, in humiliating shackles
