Description:

Oh friend, how much better is the fig seller
Than selling figs, my brother, dear friend

We live drunk and drunk we die, oh soul
Together, drunk, we run, running to the Judgment Day, oh soul

Together, drunk, we run, running to the Judgment Day, oh soul": This final line emphasizes a sense of urgency and spiritual longing, suggesting that we are all rushing towards a final destination.
