نُcompletion of 'branches'; no separate meaning منamong ساجداتٍthose prostrating ومنand among رُكَّعthose bowing
نُ من ساجداتٍ ومن رُكَّع
Is that your face, or a direction of prayer? For the branches—
Your faces, or a kiss, so the branches bow
some are prostrate, and some bowing.
Prostrating and kneeling from worshippers

You are like Adam in a garden,
You're like Adam in a garden
and how many an obedient one prostrates before you!
With so many obedient prostrators

And since the branches refused to prostrate,
And when the branches disobeyed in prostration
their final destination is the fire.
The Fire became their final destination

And you, for whom the fire of my longing has come to be
He whose morning my heart's fire burned for
fanned within my breast by my tears.
My tears in sorrow make the flames roar
