1. كم فارس يدعى وليس بفارسٍ

    وعلى الهباءة فارس ذو مصدقِ

    Many a man is called a horseman, yet is no horseman.

    And at al-Haba’ah is a horseman of proven valor.

  2. فابكوا حذيفة لن ترثوا مثله

    حتى تبيد قبائل لم تخلقِ

    So weep for Hudhayfah; you will not mourn his like

    Until tribes not yet created have perished.
