إِذاwhen حانَcomes يَومُthe day الأَعوَرِal-A‘war بنِson of بَحيرِBaḥīr
إِذا حانَ يَومُ الأَعوَرِ بنِ بَحيرِ
Who will tackle the lizards that defy capture and lure them out
Who will protect the weary mists and their tribe
when the day of al-A‘war ibn Baḥīr comes?
When the day of the one-eyed son of Bahr draws near

فَما حَفرُهُ في عَينِهِ بِكَبيرِ
If the lizard proves too difficult to coax out,
When the hyena howls to come to its tribe
digging it out is no great task in his eyes.
What it digs in its eye is no small thing
