فاخَرَتني بِيَشكُرَ بنِ بَكرِ

وَأَهلِ قُرّانَ وَأَهلِ حَجرِ

You boast to me of Yashkur son of Bakr,

And the people of Qurran and Hajar,

وَالزُنمَتَينِ عِندَ سَيفِ البَحرِ

ذاكَ أَوانَ اِفتَقَرَت لِلنَصرِ

And the two tribes by the sword of the sea,

That was a time when you were in need of aid.
