1. وَمَن تَكُ نُزهَتهُ قَينَةٌ

    وَكَأسٌ تُحَثُّ وَأُخرى تُصَب

    And if one's recreation is a singing girl,

    And a cup pressed upon him, and another poured,

  2. فَنُزهَتُنا وَاِستِراحَتُنا

    تَلاقي العُيون وَدَرسُ الكُتُب

    Then our recreation and our repose

    Are the meeting of eyes and the study of books.
