1. Baghdad is a pleasant abode
Whose breeze refreshes me with my own breath

2. It suits the prosperous, not the penniless man
Who spends the night impoverished and bankrupt

3. If it were possessed by Qarun, lord of riches
He would become anxious and worried

4. It is the one promised, but it
Quickly satisfies the well-fed drinker

5. Houris and boys and everything
You could want in it except for people
