Default translating with reference to context

Can prestigious csps show what 'reference to context' can mean by translating the following first verses by Imrul Qays?


قِفَا نَبْكِ مِنْ ذِكْرَى حَبِيبٍ ومَنْزِل
بِسِقْطِ اللِّوَى بَيْنَ الدَّخُولِ فَحَوْمَلِ
فَتُوْضِحَ فَالمِقْراةِ لَمْ يَعْفُ رَسْمُها
لِمَا نَسَجَتْهَا مِنْ جَنُوبٍ وشَمْألِ
تَرَى بَعَرَ الأرْآمِ فِي عَرَصَاتِهَـا
وَقِيْعَـانِهَا كَأنَّهُ حَبُّ فُلْفُــلِ
كَأنِّي غَدَاةَ البَيْنِ يَوْمَ تَحَمَّلُـوا
لَدَى سَمُرَاتِ الحَيِّ نَاقِفُ حَنْظَلِ

The translation of which is:

Stop, oh my friends, let us pause to weep over the remembrance of my beloved.
Here was her abode on the edge of the sandy desert between Dakhool and Howmal.
The traces of her encampment are not wholly obliterated even now.
For when the South wind blows the sand over them the North wind sweeps it away.
The courtyards and enclosures of the old home have become desolate;
The dung of the wild deer lies there thick as the seeds of pepper.
On the morning of our separation it was as if I stood in the gardens of our tribe,
Amid the acacia-shrubs where my eyes were blinded with tears by the smart from the bursting pods of colocynth.

What will be the context and how to mention it? Can you demonstrate?

Thank you.
