1. قُولا لِسَاقٍ قَسا عَنا فَيترُكَها

    كأساً دِهَاقا غدَت تَرنو لجُلاَّسِ

    You two, tell a cupbearer who has been harsh toward us to let it go—

    a brimming cup that now gazes at those seated.

  2. لا تحبِسِ الكاسَ عنا وهي مترَعَةٌ

    فالكاسُ في الرَّاحِ غيرُ الرَّاحِ في الكَاسِ

    Do not withhold the cup from us while it is full,

    for the cup in the palm is not the wine in the cup.
