1. Reward the wine bearer for fulfilling the promise,
And be generous to me with the slaughtered camel and gift.
١. أَجرِ المُدامَ على نُجْحِ المَواعيدِ
وَجُدْ عليَّ برَيَّا النَّحْرِ والجِيدِ
2. For the flower has awakened from its slumber,
As if the morning breeze carried the scent of musk and aloeswood.
٢. فقد تَنَبَّهَ من إغفائِه زَهَرٌ
كأنَ رَيَّاهُ رَيَّا المِسكِ والعُودِ
3. The dawn has scattered the night from us,
Its white lines shining on the black banners.
٣. وشَرَّدَ الصُّبحُ عنَّا الَّليلَ فاتَّضَحَتْ
سُطورُهُ البيضُ في راياتِهِ السُّودِ
4. An orange appears to the eye, as if it were dyed
With saffron, the full breast of the roe deer.
٤. ولاحَ للعينِ نارَنْجٌ كما اختَضبَتْ
بالزَّعفرانِ ثُدِيُّ النُّهَّدِ الغِيدِ
