Sol 5.6

  1. Indeed, ʿAmr, with the tribes of his people, has won

    a glory that soared above the blazing stars.

  2. They laid Lakhm and Ghassan under a debt of gratitude

    with tawny lances and lean, charging steeds.

  3. Shayban and the tribe of Taghlib protected me

    with slender-flanked steeds in their prime and keen-edged swords.

  4. How often deliverance came to us from him through a raid,

    and how many a charge when the battalions met!
