انظر إلى الكأس والصهباء سائلة

في فيه والبسط من هاتيك ليس سوى

Look at the goblet and the blonde, inquiring

In her mouth and outstretched hand there is nothing but

كأنه قدح تنصبّ في فمه

خمر بها البسط مخصوص سوا بسوا

As if it were a chalice poured into her mouth

Wine in which debauchery is peculiarly intermingled with debauchery

كأن جرتها من طينة شُويت

وصُبّ فيها عصير ليس فيه نوى

As if it had flowed from fired clay

And into it was poured juice with no pits

وبعد ذا قعد الساقي وأقعدها

وصار يسكب منها في القداح ووا

Then the cupbearer sat down and seated her

And began pouring it into cups, again and again
