1. The garden smiled when the rain wept
So for spring there are meadows adorned with flowers

2. For God the twittering of the warbler when it began
And roses are strung and scattered blossoms scattered

3. So drink happily in the light of the crescent at dawn
For the birds sing what the strings do not sing

4. And take the cup from a full moon circulating among them
A gazelle with the glances of a houri in its eyes

5. For this is comfort and basil accompanying it
And the river and the flowers and the yellow and the moon

6. Beauties and the majesty of God - did grief and thought ever cease
Except that sorrows and thoughts withered away
