1. عَلِّلاني بِصَوتِ نايٍ وَعودِ

    وَاِسقِياني دَمَ اِبنَةِ العُنقودِ

    Entrance me with the sound of a flute and lute

    And serve me the blood-red wine

  2. أَشرَبُ الراحَ وَهيَ تَشرَبُ عَقلي

    وَعَلى ذاكَ كانَ قَتلُ الوَليدِ

    I drink joy while it drinks my reason

    And upon that was the murder of Al-Walid

  3. رَبُّ سُكرٍ جَعَلتُ مَوعِدَهُ الصُب

    حَ وَساقٍ حَثَثتُهُ بِمَزيدِ

    Lord of tipsiness, I made our tryst the morn

    And legs I quickened with increase
