إني أنا الترس بنفسي أقي
من العوالي الظبي حاملي
I am the shield; with my very self I ward off
Indeed, I am the shield; with my very self I protect
the high-reaching spears from my bearer—the gazelle.
my bearer, the gazelle, from the long spears.
أرد حد السيف في متنه
وأقعص اللهذم في العامل
I turn the sword’s edge back against its broad side,
I turn the sword’s edge back into its spine,
and sever the long, keen spearhead at the upper shaft.
and strike the keen spear dead in its upper shaft.
