وَكانَت أَثافي قِدرِنا رَأسَ بَعلِها
وَعَمَّيهِ في أَيدٍ سَقَطنَ وَأَسوُقِ
The pots of our fate had its head cut off
And its master blinded, fallen into the hands of destiny
أَلَم تَرَ أَنّا بِالمَشاعِرِ يُهتَدى
بِنا وَلَنا مَجدُ الفَخورِ المُصَدَّقِ
Don't you see we are guided through the pilgrimage sites
We and ours are the glory of the honored truth-teller
أَبي مُضَرٌ مِنهُ الرَسولُ الَّذي هَدى
بِهِ اللَهُ مَن صَلّى بِغَربٍ وَمَشرِقِ
My father is Mudar, from him came the messenger who guided
Allah by him who prayed facing west and east
إِذا خِندِفٌ بِالأَبطَحَينِ تَغَطرَفَت
وَرائي وَقَيسٌ ذَيَّلَت بِالمُشَرِّقِ
When Khindif brandished at Al-Abtah
Behind me, and Qais rallied facing the east
فَما أَحَدٌ إِلّا يَرانا أَمامَهُ
وَأَربابَهُ مَن فَوقِهِ حينَ نَلتَقي
None faced us except to see us ahead
And their masters above when we come together
وَمَن يَلقَ بَحرَينا إِذا ما تَناطَحا
بِخِندِفَ أَو قَيسِ اِبنِ عَيلانَ يَغرَقِ
He who faces our two seas when they clash
With Khindif or Qais ibn Ailan's son will drown
هُما جَبَلا اللَهِ اللَذانِ ذُراهُما
مَعَ النَجمِ في أَعلى السَماءِ المُحَلِّقِ
They are Allah's two mountains which He anchored
With the stars in the highest rising heaven
فَتَحنا بِإِذنِ اللَهُ كُلَّ مَدينَةٍ
مِنَ الهِندِ أَو بابٍ مِنَ الرومِ مُغلَقِ
By Allah's will we opened every city
From India or a gate of Rome though locked
