The wine I poured in the goblet, so young and fine

رباعی شمارهٔ 42

Poetic form: Qit‘a

English translation: Hassaan, Hadi Husain

به خود باز آورد رند کهن را

می برنا که من در جام کردم

The wine I poured in the goblet, so young and fine —

Revived the spirit of the old reveller, made him once again shine.

من این می چون مغان دور پیشین

ز چشم مست ساقی وام کردم

Like the wise Magi of ancient times, I confess —

This wine I borrowed from the gaze of the cupbearer, in sweet excess.
