1. هاتِها كالتِبرِ خُفَّت بِاللآلي

    وَاِمزُجِ الأَيامَ مِنها بِاللَيالي

    Bring it, like raw gold, lightened with pearls;

    And mingle its days with nights.

  2. بَينَ أَغصانِ دَوانِ وَقَفَت

    تَطلُبُ الغُفرانَ مِن مَولى المَوال

    Among low-hanging branches that stood,

    Seeking forgiveness from the Lord of lords;

  3. وَدَوالٍ باسِطات كَفِّها

    تَخطُبُ الصِهرَ إِلى بِنتِ الدَوالي

    And vines stretching out their palms,

    Seeking marriage with the daughter of the vines;

  4. وَأَغانٍ وَمَغانٍ حَولَنا

    تَبذُلُ المَطلوبَ مِن قَبلِ السؤالِ

    And songs and haunts around us,

    Offering what is sought before it is asked for;

  5. وَجِنانٍ حافِلٍ حَفَّت بِهِ

    جَنَّتانِ عَن يَمينٍ وَشِمالِ

    And a lush garden, flanked

    By two gardens, on the right and left.
