فِي حانةِ الروضْ الحَمَامْ قَيْنَاتْ

فِي حانةِ الروضْ الحَمَامْ قَيْنَاتْ

والدوحْ خَمَّارْ وَالأوَانِي اليَاسْمِينْ

والدوحْ خَمَّارْ وَالأوَانِي اليَاسْمِينْ

In the garden’s tavern, the doves are singing girls.

In the tavern of the rose garden are doves

And the spreading trees are the tavernkeeper, and the vessels are jasmine.

And jars of wine and jasmine drinking cups,

والنهرْ سَاقِي وَالبَلاَبِلْ نُدْمَانْ

والنهرْ سَاقِي وَالبَلاَبِلْ نُدْمَانْ

والطلّ قَهْوَهْ وَالكُؤوسْ النّسْرِينْ

والطلّ قَهْوَهْ وَالكُؤوسْ النّسْرِينْ

And the river is the cupbearer, and the nightingales are drinking companions.

The river is the pourer and nightingales the boon companions,

And the dew is wine, and the cups are wild roses.

The rising sun makes coffee and crystal beakers appear,

والقُضْب تَشربْ والسواقِي تسْقِي

والقُضْب تَشربْ والسواقِي تسْقِي

والوردْ حَضْرَه والمْطَيِّبْ مَرْسِينْ

والوردْ حَضْرَه والمْطَيِّبْ مَرْسِينْ

And the boughs drink, and the watercourses give drink.

The bamboo pipe is sipped and water pipes are passed around,

And the roses are the gathered company, and the perfumer is myrtle.

Rose petals are present and perfume fills the air.
