الشَيبُ كُرهٌ وَكُرهٌ أَن يُفارِقَني
أَعجِبhow wondrous! بِشيءٍat a thing عَلىdespite البَغضاءِhatred مَودودِloved

Gray hair is hateful, yet hateful too is its leaving me.
Grey hair is hated, and hated is its leave
How wondrous—a thing loved despite being hated!
I love a thing to hateful ones endeared
