1. More beautiful than the clasping of hands in reconciliation,
And the clashing of spears upon spears,

2. Is a place where waves dance,
To the tunes of the blowing winds.

3. Branches taken away by spring,
And meadows adorned with flowers.

4. Echoes, when swords of lightning are unsheathed upon them,
Lie slain in the valley.

5. Goblets circle among the revelers,
With bodies that have free spirits.

6. A cupbearer who rouses selection,
And a entertainer who suggests proposal.

7. Rivers that flow to be sipped,
And fruits that ripen for breakfast.

8. Diffusing musk and ambergris,
And exhaling camphor and fragrance.

9. So revel if you see the land
Dressed in fine garb.

10. For the trees have burst into bloom,
Revealing the salt and wit.

11. The sky was disheveled but is now
Dotted with stars.

12. And if time inclines to conflict,
It has loosened the reins to peace.

13. For the life of delight will again turn to night,
If the night is marred by dawn.

14. After your old age, do you still hope for joy?
It's impossible to fly without wings.
