The expression the daughter of clamor describes a bird which possesses a cry that sounds like a loud and confused noise. Specifically, this expression is used to describe an ostrich. a flightless, fast-running bird which has a long neck, long bare legs, and two toes on each foot. In the ancient world, it was associated with ruins and desolate places and, therefore, with death and destruction. If it would be helpful, you could use an equivalent idiom from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [and the ostrich]
