O cupbearer, bring the wine cup,

Bring one or two cups of pure wine.

The cure for the pain of love is wine,

Bring that which is the cure for both the old and the young.

The sun and the moon are wine and the cup,

Bring the sun within the moon.

Reason is becoming completely rebellious,

Bring wine as a rope for its neck.

Quench this fire within me with water,

Meaning, bring that fire which is like water.

If the flower is gone, tell it to go in joy,

Bring pure wine like rosewater.

If the nightingale's song remains not, what sorrow?

Bring the gurgling of the wine bottle.

Do not grieve over the times, for they have passed with the wind,

Bring the music of the lute and the rebec.

Union with him cannot be seen except in dreams,

Bring a medicine that is the essence of sleep.

Although I am drunk, bring three or four more cups,

So that I become completely ruined.

Give Hafez one or two heavy measures (of wine),

Whether it is sin or merit, bring it.
