1. Have you seen how my beloved dispelled my worries
With the princess of drinks and fragrances?

2. Have you seen a full moon like him in the darkness
Or smelled a sun like it among stars?

3. A blonde described for the slain as intimate
And her breeze for the mad lover

4. The redness of his cheek does not know from its rose
Or is its rose from his veiled cheek?

5. She was with me like a dove in my nights
Oh Amr, were it not for a group like owls

6. When they saw my infatuation with her and my madness
And my swooning for her charms and composition

7. And my mouth kissing her cup and sipping it
And my hand wiping its brim with my clothes

8. They said you are deprived of the wine by drinking it
Yet it is the wine and desire of the deprived

9. So I replied, leave the wine for the Muslim
And give the Christians the wine of Fayoum

10. I and the One who created the wine and others
Do not replace what is known with what is imagined

11. With the promised Kauthar is this drink
Filtered from this gazelle of Rome

12. So they left and I was not deprived of her aroma
Oh Amr between generous and vineyards
