1. O Abu Ali, you rise early for the dawn
Judging the wishes and pleasing the friend

2. A river for the winds, over it a coat of mail
That passes with sunset and sunrise

3. When the sun yellows over it, it pours
Over its waves the water of creation

4. I stood by it, how many a companion
Coquettes with me, slender of waist

5. And embers of youth in the branches until
The water got lost in the blaze of the fire

6. So the horses charged in the field of musk
For them beads are strung from carnelian

7. So do you have at the end of musk, silver
Its vials and seal of aromatic wine
