وقهوةٍ لا يجيدها مبصر
راقت ورقَت في أعيُن النُظَر
A wine no sighted man can do justice to,
Coffee whose excellence no connoisseur can deny
charming and growing ever more exquisite in the eyes of those who gaze.
Alluring, enticing to all who cast their eyes
إذا رنت فالسرور مبتسمٌ
وإن نأت فالسرور مستعبر
When she casts a glance, joy itself smiles;
When it sings, joy appears smiling
and when she draws away, joy itself weeps.
When it's denied, joy turns teary-eyed
كأنها والحباب يحجُبها
بحر من التبر يقذف الجوهر
With bubbles veiling her, she seems
As if it and its bubbles veil it
a sea of gold casting forth pearls.
A sea of ambergris scattering pearls
غنيتُ عنها فلستُ اقربها
بناظرٍ منهُ يُسكر المُسكِر
I have no need of her and no longer approach her,
I've turned from it, though I'm not immune
thanks to one glance of his that intoxicates the intoxicating wine.
To eyes made drunken by its inebriation
