أرانب الصيد من رمي ببرجاسِ
More pleasing to the soul than the dogs' running after
More tempting to the soul than dogs to
Sweeter to the soul than the coursing of hounds upon
Hares of the hunt, than shooting at a target,
Hunted rabbits are bows of sweet wine
The hares of the hunt, or the hurling of lances at a mark,

بالنرجس الغضّ والنسرين والآسِ
Is drinking in a gathering whose sides are lightened
Drinking in a chamber with lowered walls
Is drinking in a gathering whose borders are adorned
With fresh narcissus, wild roses, and myrtle.
Of narcissus, tender saffron, and myrtle
With fresh narcissus, eglantine, and myrtle.
