I sent him to tell you some of what

بعثته يحكيك في بعض ما

1. I sent him to tell you some of what
Longing for seeing us has dressed you in

١. بَعَثْتُهُ يحكيكَ في بعضِ ما
أَلبَسَكَ الشوقُ لرؤيانا

2. But with his spirits he brings to you
Our cheekbones and eyelids

٢. لكنّه يُهدي بأَرْواحِه
إليك مَغْدانا ومُمْسانا

3. Inform Nilufer, the sprout of plants, about
My love in your losing a human

٣. نَبِّيءْ أيا نِيلُوفَرَ النَّبْت عَنْ
وُدّي بتَضْوِيعكَ إنْسانا

4. And tell him no state has improved
That would prevent you from receiving us

٤. وقل له لاَ صلَحتْ حالةٌ
تَنْهاك عن أن تتلقَّانا

5. No creatures have beautified days like
You have beautified them with beauty and kindness

٥. ما جَمّل الأيّامَ خَلْقٌ كما
جمّلْتَها حُسْنا وإحسانا

6. If generosity were folded when
Your palm became its folder

٦. لو طُويَ الجود إذا أصبحتْ
لِطيِّهِ كفُّك عُنْوانا

7. It would be as if you saw the dew
While people missed it, blind

٧. كأنَّما أنتَ رأيتَ النَّدى
والناسُ أمْسَوا عنه عُمْيانا

8. You embodied our morals in good deeds
And in your guidance, made a cradle

٨. قَفَوْتَ في المعروف أَخلاقَنا
وسُمْت في هَدْيك مَهدانا

9. There was no difference between us
Among all the living, no there were two

٩. لا كانَ من فرَق ما بينَنا
في جملة الأَحياءِ لا كانا
