فِلاحَةُfarming مثْليone like me مَمْقوتَةٌdespised
فِلاحَةُ مثْلي مَمْقوتَةٌ
وإنْand even if أعْجَبَdelighted البَدْءُthe beginning مِنْهاof it وَراقْand pleased

Farming by one like me is despised,
My farming, like me, is despised
even if its beginning delighted and pleased.
Though its beginnings were pleasing and enjoyed
زَرَعْتُI sowed اللِّقاءَthe meeting وعالَجْتُهُand tended it
زَرَعْتُ اللِّقاءَ وعالَجْتُهُ
فلمْbut did not أسْتَفِدْgain منْهُfrom it إلاّexcept الفِراقْparting
فلمْ أسْتَفِدْ منْهُ إلاّ الفِراقْ
I sowed a meeting and tended it,
I planted a meeting and took care of it
but gained from it nothing but parting.
Yet I gained from it nothing but farewell
Sol 6.1
