You lacked zeal, and your affection was ailing.
You lacked fervor and became ill with love
So you gained no share in any noble deed.
So you obtained no share of honor
فَمَاso did not أَحْزَنْتَyou sadden فيin حَرْبٍwar عَدُوَّاًan enemy

وَلاnor أَفْرَحْتَyou gladden فِيin سِلْمٍpeace حَبِيبَاa loved one
وَلا أَفْرَحْتَ فِي سِلْمٍ حَبِيبَا
So you saddened no enemy in war,
Thus you saddened no foe in war
Nor did you gladden a loved one in peace.
Nor gladdened a friend in peace
