Tis morning ; and , droppeth hail from the cloud of the winter - month Bahman

The requisites of the morning cup , prepare and give a cup of one ' man . ' *** The blood red wine of the cup , drink for lawful is its blood

In the work of the cup , engaged be ; for 'tis a work fit to be done . *** If , at dawn , thee , wine - sickness give headache ,

Verily , best , that the forehead of the vintner , thou shatter . *** Saki at hand to give the cup be for , in ambush for us , is grief

Minstrel so that grief may not reach us keep this very path of song that thou singest . *** Give wine for , the secret to my ear , the harp hath brought and said

Happily pass life and , hear this bowed Pir the harp *** Hafiz by the independence of profligates , I conjure thee drink wine ,

So that , thou mayst hear the song of the Singer , God the Independent One . *** Into the sea of self and self - praise , I am fallen . Bring

Wine , so that freedom from self and self - praise me , it may give . *** Hafiz in the rivulet of the eye , the plant of thy stature

Drank blood , and established fruit . It thou wishest to up - pluck . ***
