وبكر شربناها على الورد بكرة
فكانت لنا وردا إلى ضحوة الغد
And virgin wine we drank among the roses at dawn;
And we drank virgin wine amid the roses early one morning;
it was our draught until the morrow’s late morning.
So it was our draught until midmorning the next day.
إذا قام مبيض اللباس يديرها
توهمته يسعىبكم مورد
Whenever the white-clad man rose to pass it round,
When the white-clad one rose to pass it round,
I fancied him, moving among you, a guide to the watering-place.
You would imagine him walking with a rose-colored sleeve.
Sol 6.1
