O fragrance of the north wind, how dew-fresh you are!
O fragrance of the north wind, how dewy you are!
You infected me with sickness—then who infected you?
You infected me with sickness—who, then, infected you?

بالطيبِ أَرى كُلَّ عَليلٍ يَقوى
لِمwhy خامركِmingled with you الطيبُthe perfume فَماyet did not أَجداكِbenefit you
لِم خامركِ الطيبُ فَما أَجداكِ
With perfume, I see every sick person regain strength;
With perfume, I see every ailing person grow strong.
Why did perfume mingle with you, yet do you no good?
Why did perfume mingle with you, yet do you no good?
