وأَغْيَدَ رَوَّتْهُ المُدامَةُ فَانْثَنى

كَما يَنْثَني مِنْ رَيِّهِ الغُصُنُ الغَضُّ

The cupbearer has watered it with wine, and so it bent over

As a tender branch bends over from the rain

دَعَوْتُ إِلَيْها وَهْوَ في دَعْوَةِ الكَرى

وقَدْ أَخَذَتْ في خَلْعِ أَسْوَدِها الأَرْضُ

I called upon her while she was in the embrace of the vineyard

And the earth had begun to strip off its dark clothes

فَقامَ وفي أَعْطافِهِ فَضْلُ سَكْرَةٍ

وفي عَيْنِهِ مِنْ وَرْدِ وَجْنَتِهِ بَعْضُ

So he got up with the remnants of drunkenness in his sides

And in his eyes some of the roses and gardens
