يا حسنَ مَغداكَ وطيبَ الرواحْ
ذاك هو السعىُ وهذا النجاحْ
How lovely your morning departure, and how pleasant the evening journey!
O beauty your bed's comfort and sweet scent of repose
That is striving, and this is success!
That is the struggle, and this the attainment
مذ زجَروا فألَك أعلمتُهم
إمساكَ أيديهم عنانَ القِداحْ
Since they read your good omen, I informed them
Since they were harsh, I made it clear to them
that their hands held the reins of the divining arrows.
Restraining their hands from the bridle of the wine-cup
Sol 6.1
