ألاَ إِنَّ هِنداً أصبَحَت مِنكَ مَحرَمَا

وأَصبَحتَ مِن أَدنَى حُمُوَّتِها حَما

Alas! India has become forbidden to you

And you have become among the lowest of its defenders

فأصبحتَ كالمقَمور جَفنَ سِلاحِه

يُقَلِّبُ بِالكَفَّينِ قَوساً وأَسهُمَا

So you have become like one subdued, whose weapons

He turns over in his hands, a bow and arrows
