هَل حَدَّثَتكَ النَفسُ فيما قَد تَرى
فَلَرُبَّما صَدَقَت أَماني الأَنفُسِ
Has your soul told you what you may see?
For perhaps the soul's wishes are true.
يَسقيكَ فَضلَةَ كَأسِهِ مِن كَفِّهِ
وَإِذا رَأى الرَقباءَ لَم يَتَوَجَّسِ
He gives you a sip from his cup out of his palm
And when he sees the necks he is not suspicious
وَسنانُ مِن خَدعِ النِعاسِ جُفونَهُ
يَحكي بِمُقلَتِهِ ذُبولِ النَرجِسِ
The sleepiness of drowsiness bites his eyelids
His eyelashes tell of the wilting of the narcissus.
