أَنَشرُ الكِباءِ وَوَجهُ الأَميرِ

وَصَوتُ الغِناءِ وَصافي الخُمورِ

I spread the wine cups and the prince's face

Is it the breath of incense and the Prince's face,

And the singing voice and clarity of wines

The sound of singing and the wine of purest hue?

فَداوِ خُماري بِشُربي لَها

فَإِنّي سَكِرتُ بِشُربِ السُرورِ

Cure my intoxication with my drinking of it

So heal my hangover with a draught of it,

For I have been drunk with drinking of joys

For I am drunk upon the cup of joy.
