إِنَّ النَدى مِن بَني ذُبيانَ قَد عَلِموا

إِنَّ النَدى مِن بَني ذُبيانَ قَد عَلِموا

وَالمَجدَ في آلِ مَنظورِ بنِ سَيّارِ

وَالمَجدَ في آلِ مَنظورِ بنِ سَيّارِ

Indeed, generosity among the sons of Dhubyān—as they well know—

The glory of the clan of Dhubyan is known

and glory dwell in the house of Manẓūr ibn Sayyār.

And glory to the family of Manzur bin Sayyar

الماطِرينَ بِأَيديهِم نَدىً دِيَماً

الماطِرينَ بِأَيديهِم نَدىً دِيَماً

بِكُلِّ غَيثٍ مِنَ الوَسمِيِّ مِبكارِ

بِكُلِّ غَيثٍ مِنَ الوَسمِيِّ مِبكارِ

Who rain down bounty with their hands in steady showers,

Who rain continuously with their hands gentleness

With every early-falling shower of the autumn rains.

With every downpour from the rain-laden clouds

تَزورُ جارَتَهُم وَهناً جِفانُهُمُ

تَزورُ جارَتَهُم وَهناً جِفانُهُمُ

وَما فَتىً لَهُمُ وَهناً بِزَوّارِ

وَما فَتىً لَهُمُ وَهناً بِزَوّارِ

Their serving bowls visit their female neighbor late at night,

Their neighboors visit them in their sickness and weakness

But no young man of theirs goes calling late at night.

And they have no young men remaining for revenge

تَرضى قُرَيشٌ بِهِم صِهراً لَأَنفُسِهِم

تَرضى قُرَيشٌ بِهِم صِهراً لَأَنفُسِهِم

وَهُم رِضىً لِبَني أُختٍ وَأَصهارِ

وَهُم رِضىً لِبَني أُختٍ وَأَصهارِ

Quraysh is pleased to have them as its own kin by marriage,

The Quraysh are satisfied with them as in-laws

And they are pleasing to a sister’s sons and to in-laws.

And they are satisfied with the sons of their sisters and in-laws
