1. قَد مَضى آبُ صاغِراً لَعنَةُ اللَ

    هِ عَلَيهِ وَلَعنَةُ اللاعِنينا

    August has passed, abased—may the curse of God

    be upon it, and the curse of those who curse.

  2. وَأَتانا أَيلولُ وَهوَ يُنادي

    الصَبوحَ الصَبوحَ يا غافِلينا

    And September has come to us, calling out:

    Morning wine! Morning wine! O heedless ones!
