1. كَم باتَ يُديرُ والدُّجى في ظُلَمِه

    راحاً تَشفي أَخَا الجَوى مِن أَلَمِه

    How often he spent the night passing round, while night lay in its darkness,

    Wine that heals the lovesick man of his pain.

  2. بالفِعلِ وباللَّونِ وبالطَّعمِ نَشَت

    مِن مُقلتيهِ وَوجنتيهِ وَفَمِه

    In its effect, its color, and its taste, it sprang

    From his eyes, his cheeks, and his mouth.
