قلتI said للفرقدينto the two Farqad stars والليلwhile the night ملقcasting
قلت للفرقدين والليل ملق
فضلthe excess length of أذيالهits hems علىover الآفاقِthe horizons
فضل أذياله على الآفاقِ
I said to the two Farqad stars, while night was casting
I said to the two bright stars and the night spread
the trailing ends of its robes over the horizons:
The skirts of its garment over the horizons
ابقياremain, you two ماas long as بقيتماyou two remain فسيرمىfor it will be shot
ابقيا ما بقيتما فسيرمى
بينbetween شخصيكماyour two forms بسهمwith the arrow of الفراقِseparation
بين شخصيكما بسهم الفراقِ
“Remain as long as you may, for there shall be loosed
Stay as long as you remain, for an arrow will be cast
between your two forms the arrow of separation.”
Between your two persons, the arrow of separation
