1. O brother, let not the sweetness of brotherhood
Pass with neither joy nor estrangement from you.

2. By the one who lived gloriously only to decay,
And awoke vigorous and bold,

3. Who built his glory with great deeds
Among the nobles and the lofty ones,

4. I am needful of wine though I am not
Counted among the impoverished,

5. Guard for me today the object of my quest, or else
I will not guard from others my words of praise.

6. With conviviality, when the garden of life flourishes,
The flower of bliss blooms in it.

7. Whenever she clapped, she would tell the repentant
Of gold beneath white silver.

8. Especially as the sky clears upon us
Its darkness in shadows,

9. And the pastures in the meadows appear
In the green and the yellow,

10. So favor me with what you can spare,
For except for you my hopes are naught.
