On lined couches, Reclining therein face to face. There wait on them immortal youths With bowls and ewers and a cup from a pure spring Wherefrom they get no aching of the head nor any madness, And fruit that they prefer And flesh of fowls that they desire. <b>And (there are) fair ones with wide, lovely eyes, Like unto hidden pearls, Reward for what they used to do.</b> There hear they no vain speaking nor recrimination (Naught) but the saying: Peace, (and again) Peace. And those on the right hand; what of those on the right hand? Among thornless lote-trees And clustered plantains, And spreading shade, And water gushing, And fruit in plenty Neither out of reach nor yet forbidden, And raised couches; <b>Lo! We have created them a (new) creation And made them virgins, Lovers, friends, For those on the right hand</b>; A multitude of those of old And a multitude of those of later time.}} | ||
