لَبِثْتُ سَنَةً وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَ عُمَرَ

I waited for a year, wanting to ask Umar.

وَأَنَا and I

The wa- here opens a 'while / all the while' background clause, not a plain list, and it is fused to a standalone 'I' pronoun that re-states the subject for the side-comment. So it sets up 'while I, for my part, ...'.

From Umar and the Prophet's Wives
