تَغَيَّرَ مَن هُمُ قَلبي وَعَيني

تَغَيَّرَ مَن هُمُ قَلبي وَعَيني

فَكَيفَ مِمَّن تَغَيَّرَ باصِراهُ

فَكَيفَ مِمَّن تَغَيَّرَ باصِراهُ

Those who are my heart and my eye have changed.

My heart and eyes changed who they were

What, then, of one whose two eyes have changed?

So how could I change from seeing them?

وَلي هَمٌّ بِها وَبِهِم طَويلٌ

وَلي هَمٌّ بِها وَبِهِم طَويلٌ

فَأَشكُرُها مَن نَواهُ

فَأَشكُرُها مَن نَواهُ

And I have lasting sorrow over her and over them.

I have a lasting grief for them and for her

So I thank her—whoever intended it.

So I thank who intends it
