وتنبسطُ الأعمارُ بعد انطوائِها
In him hopes fold up even as they unfold,
Hopes fold when they expand
And lives unfold after being folded up.
And lives unfold after they're confined

ولكنْ إلى جدواهُ أقصى انتهائِها
Nor do hopes withdraw from him in disappointment,
Hopes don't fold with disappointment
But his bounty is their furthest destination.
Rather, to their utmost extent
إذاwhen غَلتِsoared far الآمالُhopes فارْضَthen be content بجودِهِwith his generosity
إذا غَلتِ الآمالُ فارْضَ بجودِهِ
فماfor there is no بعدَهbeyond him مَعْدىfurther range لِسَهْمِfor the arrow غَلائِهاtheir soaring
فما بعدَه مَعْدى لِسَهْمِ غَلائِها
When hopes soar far, be content with his generosity,
When hopes get expensive, be generous
For beyond him there is no further range for the arrow of their soaring.
For nothing can stop the arrow of their cost
