1. يَا حُسْنَهَا قَارُورَةٌ

    جَاءَتْ مَهْفَهَفَةَ القَوَامِ

    O beautiful flask

    That came swaying in her gait

  2. وَضَّاءةٌ مَمْلُوءةٌ

    مَاءَ يُضِيءُ بِلا ضِرَامِ

    Radiant, filled

    With water that shines without wick

  3. مَاءٌ بِهِ تُشْفَى صُدُورُ

    الشَّارِبِينَ مِنَ الأَوَامِ

    Water that heals the breasts

    Of those who drink from life's bitterness

  4. سِرُّ النَّدَى فِيهِ وَسِرُّ

    حَمِيَّةِ المُهْدِي الهُمَامِ

    The secret of dew is in it, and the secret

    Of the noble guide's fervor

  5. عَبَّاسٌ المُصْفَى مُوَدَّتَهُ

    الكَرِيمُ ابْنِ الكِرَامِ

    Abbas the distilled, his love

    The generous, son of the generous

  6. سَاقِي النُّهَى بِنَثِيرِهِ

    وَنَظِيمِهِ أَشْهَى مُدَامِ

    Bearer of plenty in his streaming

    And in his stringing, sweetest wine
