تُريكَ القَذى مِن دونِها وَهيَ دونَهُ

لِوَجهِ أَخيها في الإِناءِ قُطوبُ

The fleck shows you not itself but what's beyond

The face of its sister in the cup rising to greet

كُمَيتٌ إِذا فُضَّت وَفي الكَأَسِ وَردَةٌ

لَها في عِظامِ الشارِبينَ دَبيبُ

A shirt that when taken off has in the wine glass a rose

That makes the bones of those drinking it hum
