1. My friends, sit with me again for drink,
And bring back to me the illusion of youth,
١. جَالِسُونِي يَا رُفْقَتِي لِلشَّرَابِ
وَأَعِيدُوا إِلَّي وَهْمَ الشَّبَابِ
2. In the place we were used to long ago,
And like what has passed of companionship.
٢. فِي المَكَانِ الَّذِي أَلِفْنَاهُ قَبلاً
وَعَلَى مِثْلِ مَا مَضَى مِنْ تَصَابِ
3. Let us bid farewell to those places of ours
Like noble guests when they depart.
٣. وَلْنُوَدِّعْ تِلْكَ المَعَاهِدَ تُوْدِيعَ
الضُّيُوفِ الكِرَامِ حِينَ الذَّهَابِ
