1. حُثَّ المَدامَةَ وَالنَسيمُ عَليلُ

    وَالظلُّ خَفَّاقُ الرواق ظَليلُ

    Pass the wine swiftly, while the breeze is languid.

    And the shade is deep, its canopy fluttering.

  2. وَالروضُ مهتَزُّ المَعاطِف نعمةً

    نَشوانُ تعطّفه الصَبا فَيَميلُ

    And the garden's flanks sway in delight,

    Intoxicated, it leans as the east wind bends it.

  3. رَيّان فَضَّضه النَدى ثم اِنجَلى

    عنه فذهَّب صفحتيه أَصيلُ

    Lush, it was silvered by the dew, which then lifted

    From it; then late-afternoon light gilded both its sides.
