Turn away from drawing and from dunes,

عد عن رسم وعن كثب

1. Turn away from drawing and from dunes,
And distract him with the daughter of the grapevines,

١. عَدِّ عَن رَسمٍ وَعَن كُثُبِ
وَالهُ عَنهُ بِابنَةِ العِنَبِ

2. She whom if I come to propose to,
Would be adorned with jewelry made of gold.

٢. بِالَّتي إِن جِئتُ أَخطُبُها
حُلِّيَت حَلياً مِنَ الذَهَبِ

3. Created for overwhelming anxiety,
And the enemy of money and youth.

٣. خُلِقَت لِلهَمِّ قاهِرَةً
وَعَدُوَّ المالِ وَالنَشَبِ

4. Her drunk has never tasted her,
So she is free of the audacity of excitement.

٤. لَم يَذُقها قَطُّ راشِفُها
فَخَلا مِن لاعِجِ الطَرَبِ

5. Do not compare her to the one you hated,
For she refuses the call of lineage.

٥. لا تَشِنها بِالَّتي كَرِهَت
فَهيَ تَأبى دَعوَةَ النَسَبِ
