ليس الحجاب بمقص عني لك أملا

إن السماء ترجّى حين تحتجب

    This is really beautiful. General gist and not a proper translation:

    Being veiled from You does not decrese our hope in You
    For even the sky is begged when its blessings are blocked

    It’s difficult to translate the last part into English :S As-sama’u ta7tajibu is like “when the sky is blocked”, as in when you don’t see its rain, you still ask it for its blessings [rain], you don’t lose hope in it… so how can you lose hope in Allah?
