The people have persisted in their banners

ثبت الناس على راياتهم

1. The people have persisted in their banners
And Abu Al-Hindi in the land of Ziyan

وَأَبو الهِنديِّ في كَويِ زِيانِ

2. An abode which brings down whoever settles in it
Wine and adultery become licit therein

٢. مَنزِلٌ يَزري بِمَن حَلَّ بِهِ
تُستحلُّ الخَمرُ فيهِ وَالزَواني

3. Indeed life is but a charming damsel
While I sit consecrated in a tavern

٣. إِنَّما العَيشُ فَتاةٌ غادَةٌ
وَقُعودي عاكِفاً في بَيتِ حانِ

4. I drink wine and disobey those who prohibit
Seeking pleasure and beautiful white women

٤. أشربُ الخمرَ وَأَعصي مَن نَهى
عَن طِلابِ الراحِ وَالبِيضِ الحِسانِ

5. In my life is a delight I am distracted with
And when I die, my time will have passed

٥. في حَياتي لَذةً أَلهو بِها
فَإِذا مِتُّ فَقَد أَودى زَماني
