تَمادَتِ الكَأسُ بِالنَدامى
وَحُقَّand it is fitting أَنthat يَندَمَfeel regret النَديمُthe drinking companion
وَحُقَّ أَن يَندَمَ النَديمُ
The cup has carried the drinking companions too far,
The cup overflows with remorse,
and rightly should the drinking companion feel regret.
And rightly should the guest feel remorse.

ما في بَني آدَمٍ غَنِيٌّ
بَلrather كُلُّهُمall of them مُقَتِّرٌmiserly عَديمُdestitute
بَل كُلُّهُم مُقَتِّرٌ عَديمُ
None among the children of Adam is rich;
Among the sons of Adam there is no wealthy man,
rather, each of them is miserly and destitute.
Rather all of them are destitute and in want.

Rich is the one who never perishes,
He alone is wealthy who has no end,
and that is the One, the Eternal.
And He is the One, the Eternal.
