1. وَما شُربُه لِلتّبغِ إِلّا دَلالةٌ

    عَلى أَنَّه كرمٌ جسيمُ عطيّةِ

    And his smoking tobacco is nothing but a sign

    That he is generosity itself, lavish in giving.

  2. أَلَيسَ لِمَرءٍ في كَثيرِ دُخانِهِ

    عَلى كَثرَةِ الضّيفانِ أَوضح حجّةِ

    Is there not, for a man, in his copious smoke,

    The clearest proof of a multitude of guests?
