She visited a sleepless man by night on the heights of al-ʿUdhayb,
Who closed his eyelids over grit and tragacanth thorns.
والجوُّand the sky مِنْfrom فَقْدِthe loss of الصَّباحِmorning كأنهُas though it were
والجوُّ مِنْ فَقْدِ الصَّباحِ كأنهُ
أسْوانُa grieving man مُشتملٌwrapped بثَوْبِin a robe of حِدادmourning
أسْوانُ مُشتملٌ بثَوْبِ حِداد
And the sky, bereft of morning, seemed
A grieving man wrapped in a robe of mourning.
