How wondrous our morning wine in the Valley of Springs and Eyes,
How splendid our morning draught in Wadi al-‘Uyun!
while its opposite, water, pours from every boiling spring.
And the foe drinks his fill from every scalding spring.

And the wine gleams within the vessels whenever
And the wine gleams in the vessels when
it lies limpid for us in each and every vessel.
Vessels have grown clear for us in every eye.
