1. ومُدامَةٍ في الكاسِ تَحْسَبُ أنَّهَا

    وَرْدٌ جَنَتْهُ رَاحَة الأكْمَامِ

    And wine in the cup—you would think it was

    a rose plucked by the palm of the calyxes.

  2. صَاغَ المِزَاجُ لها حَبَاباً فاغْتَدَتْ

    شَرَكَ العُقُولِ وحَيْرَةَ الأفْهامِ

    The mixing fashioned bubbles for it, so it became

    a snare for minds and the bewilderment of intellects.
