كأنّas though اسودادblackness الافقthe horizon بالليلat night ثاكلٌone bereaved of a child
كأنّ اسوداد الافق بالليل ثاكلٌ
تسربلclothed himself للاحدادfor mourning ثوباًa robe مسوّداdyed black
تسربل للاحداد ثوباً مسوّدا
As though the horizon’s blackness at night were a bereaved parent,
As if the darkening of the horizon at night is a mourner
Who donned a robe dyed black for mourning.
Who dons the garb of grief in black
