O you in whom is my solace from all those I miss

يا من به سلوتي عن كل مفتقد

1. O you in whom is my solace from all those I miss
And whose affection is closer than kinship

Remain steadfast despite pains and afflictions

زلتَ المُوقّى من الآلامِ والنّوَبِ

My heart cannot be freed from worries and sorrows

قَلبي مِن الهمِّ لا ينفَكُّ ذَا وَصبِ

4. Its malady is internal, no medicine can reach it
Unless helped by an unexpected kindness

٤. وداؤُه باطنٌ لا طِبَّ يبلُغُهُ
إن لَمْ يُدارِكْهُ لطفٌ غيرُ مُحتَسَبِ

5. What has befallen him from his illness is not strange
But his well-being is among the greatest wonders

لكنْ سلامَتهُ من أعجَبِ العَجَبِ
