When shall I depart for the restful abode?
For my stay in the house of suffering has grown long.
وَقَدand indeed ذُقتُهاI have tasted it ماwhat بَينَlies between شَهدٍhoney وَعَلقَمٍand bitter colocynth
وَقَد ذُقتُها ما بَينَ شَهدٍ وَعَلقَمٍ
وَجَرَّبتُهاand I have experienced it مِنthrough صَحَّةٍhealth وَسَقامِand sickness
وَجَرَّبتُها مِن صَحَّةٍ وَسَقامِ
I have tasted it, from honey to bitter colocynth,
And experienced it in health and in sickness.
