God has a covenant with sincerity from long ago

لله عهد للرصافة سالف

1. God has a covenant with sincerity from long ago
It describes youth while in its prime

١. للَّهِ عَهْدٌ لِلرُّصافَةِ سالِفٌ
يَصِفُ الشَّبيبَةَ وَهيَ فِي رَيْعانِها

2. My heart would hold a burning anguish, if not
Watered with what melted from its fires

٢. أَبْقَى بِقَلبِي لَوْعَةً لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ
يَسْقِيهِ مَاءٌ ذَابَ مِنْ نِيرَانِها

3. O longing of my eyes that yearned for gardens
Whose streams flow to its valleys

٣. يا شَوقَ أَحْداقِي هَفَتْ لِحَدائِقٍ
تُفْضِي جَداوِلُها إِلَى غُدرَانِها

4. Like mothers who incline towards their children
Bestowing on them sustenance from their shirts

٤. كَالأُمَّهاتِ أَوَتْ إِلَى أَطْفَالِها
فَرَمَت عَلَيْها الرِّزْقَ مِنْ قُمصَانِها
