1. If you seek their love, go to them with speed,
Make haste to them with a fat camel to ride.
١. إِذا رُمتَ مِنهُم وِداداً فَقدِّمْ
وَعَجِّل إِلَيهِم بِعجلٍ حَنيذِ
2. Afterwards they will show you openly,
The friendship of wine-bibbers by your side.
٢. فَيولوكَ مِن بَعدِهِ ظاهِراً
مَودّةَ أَهلٍ لِشربِ النّبيذِ
