وفارقنيand parted from me منthe one who طارَflew بيwith me قبلbefore فرخهhis fledgling
وفارقني من طارَ بي قبل فرخه
وكنتُand I was لديهwith him فيin أعزّthe most honored مكانplace
وكنتُ لديه في أعزّ مكان
And he who bore me aloft before his own fledgling has left me.
And with him I held the most honored place.
تغطيتI took shelter عنfrom دهرِيmy fate بظلِّin the shade of جناحهhis wing
تغطيت عن دهرِي بظلِّ جناحه
فعينيso my eye ترىsees دهريmy fate وليسyet does not يرانيsee me
فعيني ترى دهري وليس يراني
I sheltered from my fate in the shade of his wing;
So my eye sees my fate, yet it does not see me.
