A year has passed, and you have bloomed, O companion of youth

مر عام وأنتض يا صاح صاح

1. A year has passed, and you have bloomed, O companion of youth
Yet with the winds, you are no longer in struggle

١. مَرَّ عامٌ وأنتض يا صاحِ صَاحِ
ومعَ الرَّاحِ لم تَعُد في كِفاحٍ

2. For long have I drank the wine
In my mornings, evenings, and respites

٢. قد شرِبتُ المدامُ دهرا طويلاً
في صَباحي وغُدوَتي ورَواحي

3. Connecting sobriety with intoxication
And intoxication with sobriety

٣. واصطبَاحٍ واصلتُه باغتِباقٍ
واغتباقٍ واصلتُه باصطِبَاحِ

4. Wine that seems to have been pressed
From the cheeks of beauties in playful times

٤. من مُدامٍ كأنما عصرُوها
من خُدود المِلاح وقتَ المِزاح

5. And my drinking companions seem to regret
What they spent their lives doing in piety

٥. ونَدامى كأنما نَدِموا عمَّا
قضَوه من عُمرِهم في الصَّلاح

6. So they saw in the permitted every sin
And saw in the sinful every permitted act

٦. فرأوا في المًُبَاحِ كلَّ حرَامٍ
ورأوا في الحَرامِ كلَّ مُباح
