He veiled himself from my sight, so heartache grew within me.
He hid from my eyes, so my passion grew
And the world closed in on me, and bewilderment grew.
The world narrowed for me and confusion increased
وَلَكِنbut بِشَمسِthrough the sun الأُفقِthe horizon دامَcontinued تَذكُّريmy recollection
وَلَكِن بِشَمسِ الأُفقِ دامَ تَذكُّري
مَحاسِنَهhis charms وَالشّيءُand one thing بِالشّيءِthrough another thing يُذكَرُis recalled
مَحاسِنَه وَالشّيءُ بِالشّيءِ يُذكَرُ
Yet the horizon's sun kept me recalling
But with the sun on the horizon my memory remains
His charms—for one thing brings another to mind.
Of his beauty, for one thing recalls another
