Wa-l-’awázil gháfileenë.”

Up with us! O true love! Let us intoxicate ourselves[[463]]

Under the shade of the jasmine:

We will pluck the peach from its mother [tree]

While the reproachers are unconscious.

“Yá benát goowa-l-medeeneh

’Andakum ashya temeeneh:

Telbisu-sh-sháteh bi-loolee

Wa-l-kiládeh ’a-n-nehdi zeeneh.”

O ye damsels in the city![[464]]
