  1. لَو كُنتَ مِن هاشِمٍ أَو مِن بَني أَسَدٍ

    أَو عَبدِ شَمسٍ أَو اَصحابِ اللِوا الصيدِ

    If you were from the Hashimite clan or the Banu Asad

    Or the servants of Shams or the people of spears and hunting

  2. أَو مِن بَني نَوفَلٍ أَو رَهطِ مُطَّلِبٍ

    لِلَّهِ دَرُّكَ لَم تَهمُم بِتَهديدي

    Or from the tribe of Nawfal or the family of Muttalib

    By God, your worth! You would not threaten me

  3. أَو مِن سَرارَةُ أَقوامٍ أُلي حَسَبٍ

    لَم تُصبِحِ اليَومَ نِكساً ثانيَ الجِيدِ

    Or from the elite tribe endowed with glory

    You would not become dejected, one with a severed neck today

  4. أَو في الذُؤابَةِ مِن تَيمٍ رَضيتُ بِهِم

    أَو مِن بَني جُمَحَ الخُضرِ الجَلاعيدِ

    Or from the praiseworthy Tha’laba clan of Taym

    Or the green, valiant sons of Jumah

  5. أَو كُنتَ مِن زُهرَةَ الأَبطالِ قَد عَلِموا

    أَو مِن بَني خَلَفِ الزُهرِ الأَماجيدِ

    Or you were from the flowers of heroes who knew

    Or from the progeny of Khalaf, people of glory

  6. يا آلَ تَيمَ أَلا يُنهى سَفيهُكُمُ

    قَبلَ القِذافِ بِأَمثالِ الجَلاميدِ

    O clan of Taym, will not your fool

    Be forbidden from the likes of insults

  7. فَنَهنِهوهُ فَإِنّي غَيرُ تارِكُكُم

    إِن عادَ ما اِهتَزَّ ماءٌ في ثَرى عودِ

    So forbid him, for I will not let you be

    If what was shaken in the ground stirs again

  8. لَولا الرَسولُ فَإِنّي لَستُ عاصِيَهُ

    حَتّى يُغَيِّبُني في الرَمسِ مَلحودي

    If not for the Messenger, I would not disobey him

    Until he buries me under the sands

  9. وَصاحِبُ الغارِ إِنّي سَوفَ أَحفَظُهُ

    وَطَلحَةُ بنُ عُبَيبِ اللَهِ ذي الجودِ

    The companion of the cave, I will protect him

    And Talha son of Ubayd Allah the generous

  10. لَقَد قَذَفتُ بِها شَنعاءَ فاضِحَةً

    يَظَلُّ مِنها لَبيبُ القَومِ كَالمودي

    I have cast vile, disgraceful words

    That would leave the sensible people disgusted

  11. لَكِن سَأَصرِفُها جُهدي وَأَعدِلُها

    عَنكُم بِقَولٍ رَصينٍ غَيرِ تَهديدِ

    But I will divert them and make them just

    For you, with composed speech without threat

  12. إِلى الزَبَعرى فَإِنَّ اللُؤمَ حالَفَهُ

    أَوِ الأَخابِثِ مِن أَولادِ عَبّودِ

    To Zubayr, for the villain has allied with him

    Or the wicked from the offspring of ‘Aboud
