وَسَيِّدِ مَعْشَرٍ قَدْ تَوَّجُوهُ بِتَاجِ الْمُلْكِ يَحْمِي الْمُحْجَرِينَا
And a chief of a people whom they had crowned with royalty, one who protected those seeking refuge.
Sayyid maʿshar conveys leadership within a group. Tawwajūhu is a Form II perfect: the plural wāw is its subject and the attached hāʾ its object. The crown makes his authority visible.
Yaḥmī al-muḥjarīnā refers to protecting people under one’s refuge. The poet places the description of a crowned chief beside the earlier boast of independence to heighten the stature of the collective; this is part of the poetic self-presentation.
