1. Drink and let the young man who accompanies the deer drink,
Or a soul of many shapes,

2. Great souls disdain to drink
With any but the great.

3. In the company of dawn we pitch tents
Furnished with branches and moons,

4. And say prayer at the call of grasshoppers
And listen to the melody of strings

5. Among a people whose imam bows down
To the goblet or kneels to the flute.
