1. سِنانُ مُحَمَّدٍ في كُلِّ حَربٍ

    إِذا نَهِلَت صُدورُ السَمهَرِيِّ

    Muhammad’s spearhead in every war,

    when the tips of the sturdy, straight spears drink;

  2. وَأَوَّلُ مَن يُجيبُ إِلى بِرازٍ

    إِذا زاغَ الكَمِيُّ عَنِ الكَمِيِّ

    and the first to answer the call to single combat,

    when one armored warrior turns away from another.

  3. مَشاهِدُ لَم تُفَلَّ سُيوفُ تَيمٍ

    بِهِنَّ وَلا سُيوفُ بَني عَدِيِّ

    Battles—the swords of Taym were not blunted

    in them, nor were the swords of the sons of Adi.
