1. وَأَرعَنَ جَرّارٍ إِذا ما تَطَلَّقَت

    كَتائِبُهُ خَرَّت لَهُ الجِنُّ سُجَّدا

    And the neighing of a stallion when his

    Regiments were dispersed, the jinn did obeisance before him

  2. لَهُ كَوكَبٌ تَعشى بِهِ الشَمسُ واضِحاً

    تَرى فيهِ أَبناءَ المَنِيَّةِ رُوَّدا

    He has a star the sun sets shyly by

    In it you see the sons of fate humbled

  3. يَقودُ أَبو الأَشبالِ رَيعانَ خَيلِهِ

    بِدارِ المَنايا بادِياتٍ وَعُوَّدا

    The father of cubs leads the steeds of his herd

    To the abode of death, uncovered and accustomed

  4. عَلى كُلِّ مِذعانِ السُرى غَيرِ مُجمِرٍ

    تُقادُ إِلى الأَعداءِ مَثنىً وَمَوحَدا

    To every pliant neck of a bridle, unkindled

    They are led forth against the foe two by two and alone
