نَزورُكُمwe visit you لاnot نُكافيكُمwe repay you بِجَفوَتِكُمfor your coldness
نَزورُكُم لا نُكافيكُم بِجَفوَتِكُم
إِنَّindeed المُحِبَّthe lover إِذاwhen لَمnot يُستَزَرis invited to visit زاراhe visits
إِنَّ المُحِبَّ إِذا لَم يُستَزَر زارا
We visit you, not repaying your coldness in kind.
For the lover, when not invited to visit, visits anyway.
يَستَقرِبُhe deems near الدارَthe dwelling شَوقاًout of longing وَهيَthough it is نازِحَةٌfar away
يَستَقرِبُ الدارَ شَوقاً وَهيَ نازِحَةٌ
مَنwhoever عالَجَhas wrestled with الشَوقَlonging لَمnot يَستَبعَدِhe deems distant الداراthe dwelling
مَن عالَجَ الشَوقَ لَم يَستَبعَدِ الدارا
In his longing, he deems the dwelling near, though it is far away.
Whoever has wrestled with longing does not deem the dwelling far.
