للَه قلبٌ تُقلِّبْهُ عواملُهُ
فراح معمولَ أفراحٍ وأحزانِ
What a heart I have! Its governing forces toss it this way and that,
till it becomes the object of joys and sorrows.
لما رأى العاملان القلبَ بينهما
تنازعاه فكان الفعل للثاني
When the two agents saw the heart between them,
they vied to govern it—and the latter, sorrow, did the governing.
Sol 5.6
