أَجرِ المُدامَ على نُجْحِ المَواعيدِ
وَجُدْ عليَّ برَيَّا النَّحْرِ والجِيدِ
Let the wine flow for promises fulfilled,
Reward the wine bearer for fulfilling the promise,
And lavish on me the fragrance of breast and neck.
And be generous to me with the slaughtered camel and gift.
فقد تَنَبَّهَ من إغفائِه زَهَرٌ
كأنَ رَيَّاهُ رَيَّا المِسكِ والعُودِ
For blossoms have awakened from their slumber,
For the flower has awakened from its slumber,
As though their fragrance were that of musk and agarwood.
As if the morning breeze carried the scent of musk and aloeswood.
وشَرَّدَ الصُّبحُ عنَّا الَّليلَ فاتَّضَحَتْ
سُطورُهُ البيضُ في راياتِهِ السُّودِ
And dawn drove night away from us, revealing
The dawn has scattered the night from us,
Its white lines amid its black banners.
Its white lines shining on the black banners.
ولاحَ للعينِ نارَنْجٌ كما اختَضبَتْ
بالزَّعفرانِ ثُدِيُّ النُّهَّدِ الغِيدِ
And bitter oranges gleamed before the eye, like
An orange appears to the eye, as if it were dyed
The saffron-dyed breasts of graceful, full-bosomed women.
With saffron, the full breast of the roe deer.
