1. What intoxication has the poet from his ecstasy that will not fade away!
Oh, how drunk he is

2. Without wine, oh how the melancholy one yearns
For homelands

3. Can we bring back our days in the gulf
And our nights

4. When the gentle breeze’s musk
Would revive our home

5. When the place’s stunning beauty
Nearly brought us back to life

6. A river shaded by a graceful palm tree
With glistening branches

7. The water flows, with boats and those who’ve sunk
From the gardens’ basil

8. Or can a poet revive for us with saplings
What was most beautiful

9. With me is the beloved and pure goblets
So serve me and fill me up

10. A life is beautiful and a meadow like a bride
When she shines

11. A life that may return from it a group
Like what once was

12. Scattered thoughts it leads and drives
To these melodies

13. Oh my friend, until when will you torture me
Lighten up a bit

14. I’m dead alive, and the one afflicted with love
Is dead while alive

15. He reaped from me the sweetest torment and meaning
A scent that spreads

16. A crescent whose gazelle outshines
All other gazelles

17. Oh, if only I knew if I have a way
To it or the palm trees

18. One who leans as if he were in his gentle swaying
A banana tree branch

19. A beautiful being with every charm
Gracing him

20. Cheeks that say they are unlike any others that sing
While drunk

21. Yes, by God, he loves me while I’m a lover
Since we are youths

22. By God we don’t know, let each one be with their companion
Whatever happens if it happens
