أَقولُI say وَزادَنيand increased me جَزَعاًin anguish وَغيظاًand rage
أَقولُ وَزادَني جَزَعاً وَغيظاً
أَزالَmay remove اللَهُGod مُلكَthe rule of بَنيthe sons of زيادِZiyad
أَزالَ اللَهُ مُلكَ بَني زيادِ
I say, with my anguish and rage mounting:
I say—and it has increased my anguish and rage—
May God bring the rule of Ziyad’s sons to an end,
May God end the rule of the sons of Ziyad,
وَأَبعَدَهُمand may He banish them بِماbecause of what غَدَرواthey did treacherously وَخانواand they betrayed
وَأَبعَدَهُم بِما غَدَروا وَخانوا
كَماjust as بَعَدَتperished ثَمودُThamud وَقومُand the people of عادِʿAd
كَما بَعَدَت ثَمودُ وَقومُ عادِ
and drive them far away for their treachery and betrayal,
And banish them for their treachery and betrayal,
as far away as Thamud and the people of ʿAd.
As Thamud and the people of ʿAd perished;
وَلاand may not رَجَعَتreturn رِكابُهُمُtheir riding camels إِلَيهِمto them
وَلا رَجَعَت رِكابُهُمُ إِلَيهِم
إِذاwhen وَقَفَتthey halt إِلىuntil يَومِthe Day of التَنادِthe Calling
إِذا وَقَفَت إِلى يَومِ التَنادِ
May their mounts never return to them
And may their riding camels not return to them,
once they halt, until the Day of Calling.
Once they halt, until the Day of Calling.
