تَرَكتُI let go حَبيباًa beloved مِنfrom يَديmy hand مِنbecause of هَوانِهِhis being held in little esteem
تَرَكتُ حَبيباً مِن يَدي مِن هَوانِهِ
وَأَقبَلتُand I turned فيto شَأنيmy affairs وَوَلّىand he turned away بِشانِهto his affairs
وَأَقبَلتُ في شَأني وَوَلّى بِشانِه
I let a beloved go from my grasp, so little did I esteem him.
And I turned to my own affairs, while he went off to his.
أَرىI see عَوَراتِflaws الناسِpeople's يَخفىis hidden مَكانَهاtheir location
أَرى عَوَراتِ الناسِ يَخفى مَكانَها
وَعَورَتُهُand his flaw فيin عَقلِهِhis mind وَلِسانِهِand his tongue
وَعَورَتُهُ في عَقلِهِ وَلِسانِهِ
I see that people's flaws lie hidden,
While his flaw lies in his mind and his tongue.
