1. I imagined something, so I did not utter
A word, and called for cups

2. Zealously, as though its light were
A lightning flash that gleamed in polished Indian steel

3. Whose glance impetuously surveys
The souls of men with haste and restlessness

4. With a cheek whose pallor pleases you
And eyes that take the place of narcissus

5. It has a tongue that ever speaks
Of the happiest people with the most misfortune

6. Whenever it is inspired to something
Which time has cast upon the successful strokes of destiny

7. The minister saw him at a peak
Of virtue rising above the lowly
