Al-Khansa tells in this poem the story of a horse race between her father and her brother, where the son almost outpaced his father but held back out of respect for his age and seniority, thus honoring her father while keeping her brother's feelings intact.

جارى أَباهُ فَأَقبَلا وَهُمايَتَعاوَرانِ مُلاءَةَ الفَخرِ
حَتّى إِذا نَزَتِ القُلوبُ وَقَدلَزَّت هُناكَ العُذرَ بِالعُذرِ
وَعَلا هُتافُ الناسِ أَيَّهُماقالَ المُجيبُ هُناكَ لا أَدري
بَرَزَت صَحيفَةُ وَجهِ والِدِهِوَمَضى عَلى غُلوائِهِ يَجري
أَولى فَأَولى أَن يُساوِيَهُلَولا جَلالُ السِنِّ وَالكِبرِ
وَهُما كَأَنَّهُما وَقَد بَرَزاصَقرانِ قَد حَطّا عَلى وَكرِ
