1. عندَنا كِيزانُ فُقّا

    عٍ لها حُسْنٌ ومَنْظَرْ

    We have cups of beer,

    with beauty and a fine appearance.

  2. كلُّ كوزٍ قد تَزَيَّى

    وَتَردَّى وتَعطَّر

    Each cup has dressed itself,

    and donned a cloak and perfumed itself.

  3. مَنْ رآنا نُورِد الأي

    دي إليها ثم نصدرْ

    Whoever saw us bring our hands

    toward them, then draw them back,

  4. ظَنَّ في أَنُملنا لل

    شمِّ تفاحاتُ عنبر

    thought our fingertips held, for

    sniffing, apples of ambergris.
