وَمُدمِنُ الخَمرِ يَصحو بَعدَ سَكرَتِهِ

وَصاحِبُ الحُبِّ يَلقى الدَهرَ سَكرانا

The wine drinker sobers after his drunkenness

And the lover lives his life intoxicated

وَقَد سَكِرتُ بِلا خَمرٍ يُخامِرُني

لَمّا ذَكَرتُ وَما أَنساهُ إِنسانا

Yet I was made drunk without wine to inebriate me

When I remembered him, whom no human can forget
