1. كَأَنَّ عَشِيَّ القَطرِ في شاطِئِ النَهرِ

    وَقَد زَهَرَت فيهِ الأَزاهِرُ كَالزَهرِ

    As though the rainy evening on the riverbank—

    where flowers have bloomed like blossoms—

  2. تُرَشُّ بِماءِ الوَردِ رَشّاً وَتَنثَني

    لِتَغليفِ أَفواهٍ بِطَيِّبَةِ الخَمرِ

    were sprinkled with rose water and bent

    to perfume mouths with fragrant wine.
