1. Whether time passes lazily or successfully,
Complain of worries to wine and the cup.

2. Guard your heart when you drink only three,
Lest joy make it fly from delight.

3. This is a proven cure for worries -
So heed the advice of one prudent who counsels you well.

4. Leave time be, for how many pieces of prudent advice
Have tried to reform time, but it was not reformed.
