1. O cupbearer whose eyelids
Contain Harut or Marut,

2. If only the gazelle had seen you, he would not
Doubt that you are more graceful than he is.

3. You placed in the belly of the bottle a drink
That made rubies bid farewell to their splendor.

4. When you poured it into our palms
You dyed them a color resembling carnelian or blackberries.

5. You crushed musk into the noses by mixing it,
When its melted musk pleaded for mercy.

6. And the essence of its body gently bubbled over the fire,
So that its molten essence became beloved.
