1. Do not be weary of time,
Slay time openly,

2. With wine slay cares
While happy and inventive.

3. Leave time be, though it rouse
What it stirred up.

4. Regret not what
You guarded against it

5. We find no fleeing what
God has decreed.

6. Give me pure wine, and sing to me
With limpid ruby wine.
