The imagination knocked

طرق الخيال المعتري

1. The imagination knocked
And weakened the lover's heart

١. طَرَقَ الخَيالُ المُعتَري
وَهناً فُؤادَ العاشِقِ

2. An apparition pained me, agitating me
For the estranged, mother of pulverizers

٢. طَيفٌ أَلَمَّ فَهاجَني
لِلبَينِ أُمَّ مُساحِقِ

3. Now I have seen the right way
And old age parted from me

٣. الآنَ أَبصَرتُ الهُدى
وَعَلا المَشيبُ مَفارِقي

4. And I left the matter of my temptation
And took the purpose of my ways

٤. وَتَرَكتُ أَمرَ غوايَتي
وَسَلَكتُ قَصدَ طَرائِقي

5. And I was content with our life
When we were between gardens

٥. وَلَقَد رَضيتُ بِعَيشِنا
إِذ نَحنُ بَينَ حَدائِقِ

6. And mounts that plunge us
Between the paths, competing

٦. وَرَكائِبٌ تَهوي بِنا
بِينَ الدُروبِ فَدابِقِ
