عَهدٌ تَوَلَّت بِهِ الأَيّامُ وَاِنجَرَدَت
بِحُسنِهِwith its beauty وَلَعاتُthe burning pangs البَينِof parting فَاِنجَرَداso it lay bare
بِحُسنِهِ وَلَعاتُ البَينِ فَاِنجَرَدا
A remembered haunt, swept away by the days and stripped
of its beauty by parting’s burning pangs, till it lay bare.
غَداbecame لَهُfor it المُزنُthe rain-clouds مَنهَلاًa watering-place بَوادِرُهُits first showers
غَدا لَهُ المُزنُ مَنهَلاً بَوادِرُهُ
كَأَنَّas though فيهِwithin it لِيُحيِيto restore life أُصبَعاًa finger وَيَداand a hand
كَأَنَّ فيهِ لِيُحيِي أُصبَعاً وَيَدا
The rain-cloud became a source of water for it with its first showers,
as though within it were a finger and a hand to restore life.
