Grammar Rules
Indefinite noun
يَـٰحَسْرَةً (Alas) has no ال and takes tanwīn (the "n" sound at the end), so it means "a" or "some" — not a specific one.
We translate it as "a/an" or leave it general.
Vocative يا (O!)
يَـٰحَسْرَةً (Alas) uses the vocative — it's calling out to someone or addressing them directly.
We add "O" before the name — "O Alas!"
Sahih International
How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.
