وَسَمَاحُكَ يُغِيثُ وَسَمَاؤُكَ تُغِيثُ
Your generosity brings rescue, and your sky brings welcome rain.
Samāḥuka is “your generosity”; samāʾuka is “your sky.” The near-identical forms link charitable rescue with a rain-bearing image of abundance.
The paired verbs differ in agreement: yughīthu with samāḥ and tughīthu with samāʾ. Grammar underpins the soundplay. Translate the two subjects separately while preserving their imagined connection.
