أصح قلبا فوجدك اليوم حمق
إن وجه الطبيعة اليوم طلق
My heart was truthful so I found you foolish today
Sober up, O heart, for your passion today is folly,
Nature's face is serene today
Indeed, the face of nature today is radiant and free.
زانت الجونة السماء فزالت
ظلمات بها ورعد وبرق
The river decorated the sky then disappeared
The sun has adorned the sky, and so have vanished
With darkness, thunder, and lightning in it
The darknesses within it, along with thunder and lightning.
وبدا النور من وراء الغيابات
فما في خلالها اليوم ودق
And light appeared from behind the disappearances
And light has emerged from behind the gloomy depths,
So there is no pounding in them today
So that today, no rain falls through the rifts.
وبدا البحر ساكنا غير موجات
علتها طير أبابيل بهق
And the sea appeared still without waves
The sea appeared still, save for the waves
Above it birds chirped loudly
Surmounted by flocks of birds, white and dappled.
وأرى الثلج ذاب إلا بقيا
ت بها الدور توجت فهي بلق
And I see the snow has melted except what remains
And I see the snow has melted, except for remnants
On the houses crowned so it is patched
With which the houses are crowned, appearing piebald.
خالعات على الربى حللا بيـ
ـضا بدت تحتها غلائل زرق
Brides on the land wearing white dresses
Draping upon the hills vestments of white,
Under them blue folds appeared
Beneath which sheer blue tunics have appeared.
وإذا الأرض كالسماء رواء
ليس بين السماء والأرض فرق
And the earth is like the sky well-watered
And lo, the earth is like the sky in splendor;
There is no difference between the sky and the earth
There is no difference between the heavens and the ground.
فكأن الثلوج في الأرض غيم
وكأن الرياض في الأرض أفق
So it is as if the snow on the earth is clouds
It is as if the snows upon the earth were clouds,
And as if the meadows on earth are horizon
And as if the gardens on the earth were the horizon.
هكذا كان أول الصحو رسم اللـ
ـه، في لونه جمال وعمق
That's how the drawing of God was at first wakeup
Thus was the first clearing of the weather, a design of God,
In its color beauty and depth
Possessing, in its hue, both beauty and depth.
هام طرفي به وأسلم قلبي
مذعنا أن قدرة الله حق
I glanced at it and surrendered my heart
My gaze wandered therein, and my heart surrendered,
Submissively believing God's power is truth
Acknowledging in submission that God's power is truth.
