- a. 625, اَلأَعْشَى (al-ʾaʿšā)
  ‏وَكَأسٍ كَعَينِ الديكِ باكَرتُ حَدَّها
  بِفِتيانِ صِدقٍ وَالنَواقيسُ تُضرَبُ
  سُلافٍ كَأَنَّ الزَعفَرانَ وَعَندَما
  يُصَفَّقُ في ناجودِها ثُمَّ تُقطَبُ‎
  wa-kaʾsin ka-ʿayni ad-dīki bākartu ḥadda-hā
  bi-fityāni ṣidqin wa-n-nawāqīsu tuḍrabu
  sulāfin ka-ʾanna az-zaʿfarāna wa-ʿindamā
  yuṣaffaqu fī nājūdi-hā ṯumma tuqṭabu
  There are stoops splendid like cock’s eyen, and I betook myself early to cross the border [into the land of the Christians]
  with friendly lads, where the bells are hit,
  where there is fore-must wine like saffron,
  and one clinks the beakers and then mixes the wine.
- c. 800, Abū Nuwās, طَرِبَ الشيْخُ فغنّى واصْطبحْ‎:
  
  ‏طَرِبَ الشيْخُ فغنّى، واصْطبحْ
  من عُقارٍ تُنهبُ الهمّ الفَرَحْ
  أخَذتْ من كلّ شيءٍ لَوْنَهــا،
  هي في ناجودها قوْسُ قُزَحْ‎
  The shaykh gleed and sang and drank the booze
  forthy delight removes the sorrow.
  He obtained from every thing its hues
  and his cup exposed a rainbow.
