هَلُمَّ إِلَينا آلَ بُهثَةَ إِنَّما

هَلُمَّ إِلَينا آلَ بُهثَةَ إِنَّما

هِيَ الدارُ لا نَعتافُها وَنُهينُها

هِيَ الدارُ لا نَعتافُها وَنُهينُها

Come to us, O clan of Buhthah; for only

Come to us, O clan of Bu'athah, for it is but a house we would dispossess and forbid,

Come to Dhubyan - its fortresses are in ruins and Samhar's horns are blunt,

هَلُمَّ إِلى ذُبيانَ إِن بِلادَها

هَلُمَّ إِلى ذُبيانَ إِن بِلادَها

حُصونٌ وَإِنَّ السَمهَرِيَّ قُرونُها

حُصونٌ وَإِنَّ السَمهَرِيَّ قُرونُها

Come to Dhubyan; indeed, its lands

I find you not dwelling in Qunnah,

are fortresses, and indeed the Samhari spears are its horns.

You who triple her forces and double her squadrons.

وَلا أُلفينَكُم تَعكِفون بِقُنَّةٍ

وَلا أُلفينَكُم تَعكِفون بِقُنَّةٍ

بِتَثليثَ أَنتُم جُندُها وَقَطينُها

بِتَثليثَ أَنتُم جُندُها وَقَطينُها

And let me not find you dwelling on a mountain peak

at Tathlith—you are its troops and its inhabitants.
