أَبَا هِنْدٍ فَلَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيْنَا وَأَنْظِرْنَا نُخَبِّرْكَ الْيَقِينَا
O Abā Hind, do not act hastily against us; grant us time so that we may tell you what is certain.
Abā Hind is an accusative form of direct address, referring to the ruler ʿAmr ibn Hind. The prohibitive fa-lā taʿjal asks him not to rush; anẓirnā is an imperative requesting a delay.
Nukhbirka al-yaqīnā speaks in the first-person plural on behalf of a collective. By promising certainty rather than mere opinion, the poet prepares his audience for the ensuing public boasts.
