1. Oh beauty, we are lost in delight, and our night
with the flowers of its stars is haunted by sprites.
١. يا حُسْنَنا نَحْنُ في لَهْوٍ ولَيْلَتُنا
بِزَهْرِ أَنْجُمِها تُرْمى العَفاريتُ
2. Embraced tight by our drunkenness, pressed to each other,
as gems on a bracelet, we lie close as beads.
٢. وقَدْ تَضايَقَ في السُّكْرِ العِناقُ بِنا
كَما تَضايَقَ في النَّظْمِ اليَواقيتُ
