فضجت مما لجت الجدر، فرجعت على الورق الشكر،
So the walls resounded with what the torrents brought, and thanks returned on the leaves,
الشُّكْرُ the thanks
This is the delayed subject of 'returned', the thanks that came back, so it carries the subject ending though it follows the verb and its place-phrase. The 'the' makes it the specific gratitude, presented as the rain's final, blooming response.
وبشكر نعمته سجد المصلي وخوى،
And in gratitude for His blessings, the worshipper prostrated and became humble.
بِشُكْرِ with gratitude
A 'with/by' preposition is fused to the front, marking the cause or occasion, and it forces this noun into the 'of' ending. The noun is also the first half of a possessive pair, leaning on the next word to say gratitude for what.
