1. وَلَقَد شَهِدتُ الخَيلَ وَهيَ مُغيرَةٌ

    وَلَقَد طَعَنتُ مَجامِعَ الرَبِلاتِ

    And indeed I have witnessed the cavalry raiding,

    And indeed I have pierced where the thigh muscles meet—

  2. رَبِلاتِ جودٍ تَحتَ قَدٍّ بارِعٍ

    حُلوِ الشَمائِلِ خيرَةِ الهَلَكاتِ

    Thighs of noble men beneath a splendid frame,

    Gracious in manner, the finest of the fallen;

  3. رَبِلاتِ خَيلٍ ما تَزالُ مُغيرَةً

    يُقطِرنَ مِن عَلَقٍ عَلى الثُنّاتِ

    Thighs of horsemen who never cease raiding,

    Dripping clotted blood onto the fetlock tufts.
