وما في الناسِ أجودُ من شجاعٍ

وما في الناسِ أجودُ من شجاعٍ

وإنْ أعطى القليلَ من النوالِ

وإنْ أعطى القليلَ من النوالِ

And none among people is more generous than a brave man,

None are more generous than the valiant,

Even if he gives only a little bounty.

Though he may give but little of his wealth,

وذلك أنّه يُعطيك مِما

وذلك أنّه يُعطيك مِما

تُفيء عليهِ أطرافُ العوالي

تُفيء عليهِ أطرافُ العوالي

And that is because he gives you from what

For he gives you of that which he retrieves

The tips of long spears bring him as spoils.

From the lofty peaks where the winds blow free.

وحسبُك جودُ مَنْ أعطاكَ مالاً

وحسبُك جودُ مَنْ أعطاكَ مالاً

جباهُ بالطّرادِ وبالنّزال

جباهُ بالطّرادِ وبالنّزال

And enough for you is the generosity of one who gave you wealth

Sufficient is the generosity of one

That he gathered through cavalry charges and combat.

Who gives you riches gained through spear and sword,

شرى دمَهُ ليحويَهُ فلمّا

شرى دمَهُ ليحويَهُ فلمّا

حواهُ حوى به حمدَ الرجال

حواهُ حوى به حمدَ الرجال

He sold his blood to acquire it; then, when

Who bought his blood to contain it, but when

He acquired it, he gained with it the praise of men.

Contained, was praised by all men for his gift.
