   • a. 608, by زُهَيْر بِن أَبِي سُلْمَى (zuhayr bin ʾabī sulmā)

     ‏إِذَا تَرَامَت بِهَا الدَيْمُومَةُ الْجَدَدُ / عَوْمَ الْقَوَادِسِ قَفَّى الْأَرْدَمُونَ بِهَا / إِذَا تَرَامَى بِهَا الْمُغْلَوْلِبُ الزَبِدُ / بِفِتْيَةٍ كَسُيُوفِ الْهِنْدِ يَبْعَثُهُم‎

     ʾiḏā tarāmat bi-hā d-daymūmatu l-jadadu / ʿawma l-qawādisi qaffā l-ʾardamūna bi-hā / ʾiḏā tarāmā bi-hā l-muḡlawlibu z-zabidu / bi-fityatin ka-suyūfi l-hindi yabʿaṯu-hum

     When the wasteland of the hard soil was reached / by floating in the barges, they put up behind them the foresail / And when the luxuriance of foam / hit the young men, it sent them forth like Indian swords.
