ومجمعي حطب على البيت الذي * لم يجتمع لولاه شمل الدين والهاجمين على البتول ببيتها * والمسقطين لها أعز جنين والفائدين أمامهم بنجاده * والطهر تدعو خلفه برنين خلوا ابن عمي أو لأكشف في الدعا * رأسي وأشكو للإله شجوني ما كان ناقة صالح وفصيلها * بالفضل عند الله إلا دوني ورنت إلى القبر الشريف بمقلة * عبرى وقلب مكمد محزون قالت وأظفار المصاب بقلبها * غوثاه قل على العداة معيني أبتاه هذا السامري وعجله * تبعا ومال الناس عن هارون أي الرزايا أتقي بتجلدي * هو في النوائب مذ حييت قريني فقدي أبي أم غصب بعلي حقه * أم كسر ضلعي أم سقوط جنيني أم أخذهم إرثي وفاضل نحلتي * أم جهلهم حقي وقد عرفوني قهروا يتيميك الحسين وصنوه * وسئلتهم حقي وقد نهروني

— and those who gathered firewood against the house which, — but for it, the gathering of the religion would never have been made whole; — and those who broke in upon the Chaste One in her house — and made her miscarry the most cherished unborn child; — and those who led their leader away by his sword-belt — while the Pure One called out behind him with a ringing cry: — Let go of my cousin, or I shall uncover in supplication — my head, and complain of my griefs to God. — The she-camel of Salih and her young were never, — in merit before God, anything but below me. — And she turned towards the noble grave with an eye — brimming with tears, and a heart burning and sorrowful. — She said, while the talons of affliction were in her heart: — Help! Say to the enemies: who is my helper? — O my father, this is the Samiri and his calf — followed, while the people have turned away from Harun. — Which of the disasters shall I ward off with my endurance, — when it has been my companion among misfortunes since I lived? — The loss of my father? Or the seizing of my husband's right? — Or the breaking of my rib? Or the falling of my unborn child? — Or their taking of my inheritance and the surplus of my gift? — Or their ignoring of my right, when they had known me? — They overcame your two orphans, al-Husayn and his brother; — and I asked them for my right, and they rebuked me.
