1. أَلا سَقِّياني فَالظَلامُ قَدِ انجَلى

    وَأَبدَت تَباشيرُ الصَباحِ عَمودَها

    Oh cupbearer, the darkness has cleared away

    And dawn has raised its pillars of light

  2. سُلافاً كَأَنَّ المِسكَ كانَ لِدَنِّها

    خِتاماً وَماءَ الوَردِ رَوّى صَعيدَها

    With lips pure as musk it seems

    And the rose's dew has moistened its earth
