أصبحتَ فَرداً يا أبا جَعفرٍ
لا سَلَفٌ دانٍ ولا نَسلُ
You have become solitary, O Abu Ja‘far,
You have become alone, O Abu Ja'far,
With no close forebear and no offspring.
With no ancestors or descendants.
فأنتَ كالكَمأةِ مَجنِيَّةً
ليسَ لها فَرعٌ ولا أصلُ
So you are like a harvested truffle:
You are like a severed palm tree,
It has neither branch nor root.
With neither branches nor roots.
Sol 6.1
