لِمَن بَعدَهُ أَسيافُهُ وَقَناهُ

لِمَن بَعدَهُ أَسيافُهُ وَقَناهُ

وَمَن يولِعُ البيضَ الرِقاقَ سِواهُ

وَمَن يولِعُ البيضَ الرِقاقَ سِواهُ

To whom do his swords and spears belong after him?

To whom after him are his swords and spear

And who but he rouses the slender white swords?

And who would set the fragile eggs afire but him

فَقَد كانَ يَرجو أَن يَنالَ مُناهُ

فَقَد كانَ يَرجو أَن يَنالَ مُناهُ

فَخَلَّفَني فَرداً وَنالَ رَداهُ

فَخَلَّفَني فَرداً وَنالَ رَداهُ

For he had hoped to attain his heart’s desire,

He had hoped to attain his wishes

Yet he left me alone and met his death.

So he left me alone and attained his reward
