1. قُمْ سَقِّني صَفْوَها يا صاحِ والعَكَرا

    مُدامَةً تُذهِبُ الأحزان والفِكَرا

    Rise, pour me its clear draught, my friend, and the cloudy too—

    wine that drives away sorrows and cares.

  2. ويا نَديمي تنَبَّهْ إنّما سَكَني

    مَن لا يَلَذُّ على حُبِّ السُّلافِ كَرا

    And O my drinking companion, wake up: my only solace

    is one who, for love of pure wine, finds no sweetness in sleep.
