بَلَغَتْهُ الكَأسُ فَارْتَعَدَتْ

طَرَبَاً مِنْهَا إِلَى فَمِهِ

The cup reached him, causing tremors

From it to his mouth,

مَنَعَتْهُ أَنْ يُؤَخِّرَهَا

فِي يَدَيْهِ مِنْ تَحَشُّمِهِ

It prevented him from delaying it

In his hands from his bashfulness,

فَتَحَاشَاهَا وَأَعْقَبَهَا

أَرَجَاً مِنْ طِيْبٍ مَبْسِمِهِ

So he turned it away and followed it

With fragrant breath from his smile.
