إِذا لَقيتَ الأَعادي يَومَ مَعرَكَةٍ

فَإِنَّ جَمعَهُم المَغرورَ مُنتَهبُ

When you meet your enemies on the battlefield

Know that the arrogant one has brought plunder

لَكَ النُفوسُ وَلِلطَيرِ اللَحومُ وَلِلـ

ـوَحشِ العِظامُ وَلِلخَيّالَةِ السَلَبُ

For you are the souls and for the birds the flesh

For the beasts the bones and for the brave the spoils
