For the ear grows weary and the heart is fickle.
تَقَلُّبٍ — fickle. This noun is owned by the 'possessor of' word just before it, so the two form a tight possessive pairing: the heart is the owner of this quality. Sitting as the owned second term, it takes the genitive ending, the case Arabic always assigns to the second noun in such a back-to-back 'of' link.
