1. شَرِبنا بِالصَغيرِ وَالكَبيرِ

    وَلَم نَحفِل بِأَحداثِ الدُهورِ

    We drank from cups both small and large.

    And paid no heed to the events of the ages.

  2. وَقَد رَكَضَت بِنا خَيلُ المَلاهي

    وَقَد طِرنا بِأَجنِحَةِ السُرورِ

    And the horses of revelry had galloped with us.

    And we had flown on the wings of joy.
