1. بدت غرَّةُ النيروزِ باللَّهوِ والأُنسِ

    فقم نجلُ بنتَ الدَنِّ حمراءَ كالورس

    The dawn of Nowruz has appeared with revelry and conviviality.

    So rise: let us unveil the wine-jar’s daughter, red as wars dye,

  2. معتّقة في دنِّها قَيصرية

    توارثَها قَسٌّ من الرومِ عَن قَسِّ

    Aged in her jar, a Caesarean wine,

    Passed down among the Romans from priest to priest.
