1 By the (Steeds) that run, with panting (breath),

2 And strike sparks of fire,

Shakir

Hilali & Muhsin Khan

2 Striking sparks of fire (by their hooves).

3 And push home the charge in the morning,

Shakir

5 And penetrate forthwith into the midst (of the foe) en masse; -

Shakir

5 Then rush thereby upon an assembly:

10 And that which is in the breasts (of men) is made known?
