قوامي من محبتكم خلال
and I don't understand the antithesis |

in the first, it stands for friends جمع عامي لكلمة خل بكس الخاء وتشديد اللام
and in some other countries it may be said خلان not خلال

Now, I'm sure about the first but really sure about the second. More context should be of help, but I can guess that it might be خلال بفتح أو كس الخاء واللام دون تشديد to indicated السعة as in:
My friends your love is the source of my strength
My strength because of your love is that strong
المشكلة حقا انا انني افهم المعنى هنا ولكنني لا استطيع ان اجد طريقة للتعبير عنه لا بالانجليزية ولا العربية!!!

Yes Randa, I'd go for it as you said: You my friends are the source of my strength which is very little due to your love. It think I expressed it totally the opposite in my answer ... sorry *blush* |
