1. لَم يَرجِعوا مِن خَشيَةِ المَوتِ وَالرَّدى

    وَقَد جَلَبَتها مِن بَعيدٍ جَوالِبُ

    They did not retreat for fear of death and destruction,

    and those who drove it had brought it from afar.

  2. سَيَمنَعُها مِن أَن تَرُدَّ حَفيظَةً

    فَوارِسُ صَعبٍ وَالكُماةُ مُحَارِبُ

    They will keep it from turning back, out of protective zeal—

    the horsemen of Ṣaʿb and the armored warriors, Muḥārib.
