Wa anta ya jayyid az'ir wa iltahiq bil-nimarah*

And you, noble one, roar and join the tigers!

This line uses the metaphor of 'tigers' (النماره - al-nimarah) to symbolize strength, bravery, and ferocity, urging the noble listener to join those who fight with such courage.

“خير من نذل جاير يحكمك من مغاره*”

Khayr min nadhl ja'ir yahkumuk min magharah*

Better than an unjust wretch ruling you from a cave.

This line presents a stark choice: to live with dignity or die honorably, stating that death is preferable to being ruled by a 'wretch from a cave,' implying an ignoble, cowardly, or primitive oppressor.

“حان ياوعل تنطح بالقرون الجواسر”

Han ya wa'l tantah bil-qurun al-jawasir

It's time, O ibex, to butt with your strong horns!

The singer addresses the listener as an 'ibex' (وعل - wa'l), a mountain goat known for its strong horns and resilience, urging them to use their inherent strength to confront and 'butt' (تنطح - tantah) the enemy.
