الخَمرُ تُفّاحٌ جَرى ذائِباً

الخَمرُ تُفّاحٌ جَرى ذائِباً

كَذالِكَ التُفّاحُ خَمرٌ جَمَد

كَذالِكَ التُفّاحُ خَمرٌ جَمَد

Wine is apples that have flowed in molten form.

Wine is melting apple

Wine is an apple that has flowed and melted,

Likewise, apples are wine that has solidified.

Thus apple is frozen wine

Just as the apple is wine that has solidified.

فَاشرَب عَلى جامِدِ ذا ذَوبَ ذا

فَاشرَب عَلى جامِدِ ذا ذَوبَ ذا

وَلا تَدَع لَذَّةَ يَومٍ لِغَد

وَلا تَدَع لَذَّةَ يَومٍ لِغَد

So drink the molten form of one with the solid form of the other.

Drink from melting frozen one

So drink the melt of this upon the solid of that,

And do not leave today's pleasure for tomorrow.

Do not leave one day’s joy for tomorrow

And leave not the delight of a day for the morrow.
