1. The morning cupbearer circled with cups at dawn
So we urged him on as the morn was growing bright

2. The garden shows us its anemones
And its ambergris-scented blossoms exhale their scent

3. We asked, where is the wine? He told us:
I left it in the mouth of the one who drank from the cup

4. So the pourer of wine kept denying what
He had said, until he smiled and stood exposed
