Yesterday the wine-seller elder may his mention be blessed

Said drink wine and take heart's grief from memory

I said wine gives my name and honor to the wind

Said accept the word and whatever will be will be

Profit and loss and capital since will go from hand

For this transaction don't be sad or happy

Wind will be in your hand if you set heart on nothing

In a place where Solomon's throne goes to wind

Hafez if you're weary of wise ones' counsel

We'll make the tale short may your life be long
