Dear time hath passed. Come; let us repeat the omitted prayers Of a long life that without the presence of a goglet and of the cup hath passed

Like aloe-wood, how long can one consume in the torment of repentance? Give wine. For life in the essence of raw madness hath passed.

Again counsel not Hafez; for the path of austerity, found not, A lost one, to whose palate the sweet wine hath passed.
