Translation: But when they saw the (garden), they said: "We have
surely lost our way: 5611
Commentary:
5611 Their fond dreams were dispelled when they found that the garden had
been changed out of all recognition. It was as if they had come to some place
other then their own smiling garden. Where they had expected to reap a rich
harvest, there was only a howling wilderness. They reflected. Their first thought
was of their own personal loss, the loss of their labour and the loss of their capital.
They had plotted to keep out others from the fruits: now, as it happened, the loss
was their own.
