الزَهرُ وَسْنانٌ وَيَقظانٌ

وَالقُضبُ نَشوانٌ وَسَكرانُ

The flowers are awake and sober,

And the twigs are joyful and drunk.

وَالآسُ في الخُضرَةِ فَيروزَجٌ

وَالوَردُ في الحُمرَةِ مَرجانُ

The myrtle in the greenery is turquoise,

And the rose in the redness is coral.

فَاِشرَب عَلى جَونَةِ حَلىِ الثَرى

ما دامَ فيها العِقدُ وَالجانُ

So drink to the beauty of the earth,

As long as there are pearls and wine within.
