لقد شب جمر القلب من فيض عبرتي
كماjust as إنindeed رأسيmy head شابturned gray منfrom موقفthe scene of البينseparation
كما إن رأسي شاب من موقف البين
The embers of my heart have flared from the flood of my tears,
The heart’s embers have indeed flared from the overflow of my tears,
even as my head has turned gray from the tear duct of parting.
Just as my head has turned gray from facing separation.
وإنand if كنتyou are ترضىare content ليfor me مشيبيmy gray hair والبكاand weeping
وإن كنت ترضى لي مشيبي والبكا
تلقيتI received ماwhat ترضاهyou approve of it بالرأسwith the head والعينand the eye
تلقيت ما ترضاه بالرأس والعين
And if it pleases you that gray hair and weeping be mine,
And if you are content with my gray hair and weeping,
I will welcome whatever pleases you—with head and eye.
I would gladly receive what pleases you, with head and eye.
Sol 6.1
