حَقِيْقٌ أَنْ تَصُولَ بِيَ الرُّماةُ

حَقِيْقٌ أَنْ تَصُولَ بِيَ الرُّماةُ

وأنْ تَعْنُوْ لِصَوْلَتِي الكُماةُ

وأنْ تَعْنُوْ لِصَوْلَتِي الكُماةُ

It is fitting that archers attack with me,

It's true that archers assault me,

and that armored warriors bow before my onslaught.

And spearmen yearn for my demise;

إذا فَوَّقْتُ في الأبطال سَهْماً

إذا فَوَّقْتُ في الأبطال سَهْماً

فما تُغْنِي الدُّرُوْعُ السَّابِغَاتُ

فما تُغْنِي الدُّرُوْعُ السَّابِغَاتُ

When I ready an arrow against the champions,

When I excel among the valiant with an arrow,

then full-length coats of mail are of no avail.

Coats of mail afford no refuge.

وإنِّي كالمَجَرَّة في اعتلاءٍ

وإنِّي كالمَجَرَّة في اعتلاءٍ

وَنَبْلِي الشُّهْبُ والجِنُّ العُداةُ

وَنَبْلِي الشُّهْبُ والجِنُّ العُداةُ

And I am as lofty as the Milky Way,

I'm like a star, riding high,

and my arrows are shooting stars, and the jinn are the foes.

My arrows are meteors, demons my foes.
