إِن كانَ ما بُلِّغتَ عَنّي فَلامَني

إِن كانَ ما بُلِّغتَ عَنّي فَلامَني

صَديقي وَحُزَّت مِن يَدَيَّ الأَنامِلُ

صَديقي وَحُزَّت مِن يَدَيَّ الأَنامِلُ

If what you were told about me is true, then may I be blamed

If what has been conveyed to me about myself is true

By my friend, and may my fingertips be severed from my hands;

Then my friend has betrayed me and taken the reins from my hands

وَكَفَّنتُ وَحدي مُنذِراً في ثِيابِهِ

وَكَفَّنتُ وَحدي مُنذِراً في ثِيابِهِ

وَصادَفَ حَوطاً مِن عَدُوِّيَ قاتِلُ

وَصادَفَ حَوطاً مِن عَدُوِّيَ قاتِلُ

And may I alone shroud Mundhir in his clothes,

And I have wrapped myself alone in my garments as a warner

And may a killer among my enemies encounter Hawt.

And have come across a garrison of my lethal enemy
