يا لائمي على شرب الدجى ابداً

لقهوة البن لو بلغتما خبري

O you who blame me for drinking coffee at night,

If only you knew the news about coffee!

فقد سهرت ومن أدنى منافعها

إعانة العاشق المضنى على السهر

For I have stayed up, and among its lowest benefits

Is aiding the exhausted lover in his vigil
