قَد أَوقَدَ الزَهرُ مَصابيحَهُ

قَد أَوقَدَ الزَهرُ مَصابيحَهُ

وَصَيَّرَ القَضبَ فَوانيسا

وَصَيَّرَ القَضبَ فَوانيسا

The blossoms have already lit their lamps

The flowers have lit their lamps,

And turned the boughs into lanterns.

And made the branches lanterns.

فَأَغنِ بِالراحِ نَدامى غَدَوا

فَأَغنِ بِالراحِ نَدامى غَدَوا

مِنَ المَسَرّاتِ مَفاليسا

مِنَ المَسَرّاتِ مَفاليسا

So enrich with wine the drinking companions who have become

So sing with the wind in the morn

Bankrupt of delights,

Happy lays without end,

ما دامَ قَد صارَت نَعامُ الرُبى

ما دامَ قَد صارَت نَعامُ الرُبى

مِن نِعَمِ السُحبِ طَواويسا

مِن نِعَمِ السُحبِ طَواويسا

So long as the ostriches of the hills have now become

While the wild birds of the waste

Peacocks through the bounty of the clouds.

Are still our boon friends.
