My body has wasted away from love and has vanished;
My body melted away in passionate love and disappeared
And grown light, so now it flies in the air.
It became light and turned into a bird in the air
وَلَيسَand not يَرانيsees me غيرexcept طرفٍan eye مُحدّقgazing intently
وَلَيسَ يَراني غير طرفٍ مُحدّق
حَديدkeen-sighted بِضَوءِby the light of الشّمسِthe sun بَينَamong الهباءِthe dust motes
حَديد بِضَوءِ الشّمسِ بَينَ الهباءِ
And none sees me but an intently gazing eye,
No one sees me except an attentive glance
Keen-sighted, in the sunlight, among the dust motes.
Like iron glistening in the sun among the dust
Sol 6.1
