1. Your tears that softened bodies
For what pained them as hearts were shattered
١. قَطَائِفُكَ التي رَقّتْ جُسُوماً
لِمَا ضِغها كَما فَتَّتْ قُلُوبَا
2. Like clouds softened but with drops in them
The barren meadow became fertile with it
٢. كَغْيمٍ رَقَّ لِكِنْ فِيهِ قَطرٌ
غَدَا المَرْعَى الجَدِيبُ بِهِ خَصيبَا
3. So they came, necks immersed
And with the immersion, did not deny the settlement
٣. فَجَاءَتْ وَهْيَ غَرْقَى راسِباتٌ
وَلَمْ تُنْكَرْ مَعَ الغرَقِ الرُّسُوبَا
4. If their wearer softened and dissolved
For the greatness of their place, the vast chest
٤. لَئِنْ رَقّتْ لابِسُها وَحَلَّتْ
لِعِظْمِ مَحَلِّها الصَّدْرَ الرَّحِيبَا
