1. الرَوضُ وَنَشوَةُ الصِبا وَالراحُ

    قَلبي أَبَداً لِطيبِها يَرتاحُ

    The garden, the rapture of youth, and wine—

    My heart forever delights in their sweetness.

  2. واهاً لِدَوائِر اللَيالي صَرَفَت

    إِذ قابَلَها بدورها الأَقداحُ

    Ah for the nights’ vicissitudes, which turned aside

    When the goblets faced them with their full moons.
