أمَا تَرَى دَمَهُ في الطَّشتِ حِينَ جَرَى

أمَا تَرَى دَمَهُ في الطَّشتِ حِينَ جَرَى

سُلاَفَةَ الرَّاحِ فِي كَأسٍ منَ الذَّهَبِ

سُلاَفَةَ الرَّاحِ فِي كَأسٍ منَ الذَّهَبِ

Do you not see his blood in the basin as it flowed—

Do you not see his blood in the goblet when it flowed,

the choicest wine in a cup of gold?

The draft of wine in a golden cup?

لَو لَم تَكُن مِن دَمِ العُنقُودِ رِيقتُهُ

لَو لَم تَكُن مِن دَمِ العُنقُودِ رِيقتُهُ

لَمَا اشتَكَى خَدُّهُ القَانِي منَ اللَّهَبِ

لَمَا اشتَكَى خَدُّهُ القَانِي منَ اللَّهَبِ

Had his saliva not been from the grape-cluster's blood,

Had it not been from the juice of grapes, his drink,

his crimson cheek would not have complained of flame.

His cheek would not have complained of the flame.

تَبَّت يَدَا عَاذِلِيَّ فَوقَ وَجنَتِهِ

تَبَّت يَدَا عَاذِلِيَّ فَوقَ وَجنَتِهِ

حَمَّالَةِ الوَردِ لاَ حَمَّالَةِ الحَطَبِ

حَمَّالَةِ الوَردِ لاَ حَمَّالَةِ الحَطَبِ

May my reproachers' hands perish above his cheek,

May the hands of my reproacher be dust-covered over his cheek

the bearer of roses, not the bearer of firewood.

Bearing roses, not bearing firewood,

حَتَّى إذَا دَخَلَت فِي كُمِّهِ يَدُهُ

حَتَّى إذَا دَخَلَت فِي كُمِّهِ يَدُهُ

كَالشَّمسِ غَابَت عنِ الأنظَارِ في الحُجُبِ

كَالشَّمسِ غَابَت عنِ الأنظَارِ في الحُجُبِ

Until, when his hand entered his sleeve,

Until when his hand entered his shirt,

like the sun, it vanished from sight behind the veils.

It disappeared from sights like the sun in the clouds.

ارجِع لِمَا قَالَ فِي التَّنزِيلِ خَالِقُنَا

ارجِع لِمَا قَالَ فِي التَّنزِيلِ خَالِقُنَا

اخفِض جَنَاحَكَ يَا مُوسَى مِنَ الرَهَبِ

اخفِض جَنَاحَكَ يَا مُوسَى مِنَ الرَهَبِ

Return to what our Creator said in Revelation:

Return to what our Creator said in the Revelation:

"Lower your wing, O Moses, to dispel fear."

"Lower your wing, O Moses, out of awe."
