1. My words are frank in existence, and my gestures,
Equally, my declarations are but air and my concealments.

2. It is the sea - our words do not cease from it
Now from its waves, now from its water.

3. And every word that has come from a speaker
By it is from him, from him in symbolic names.

4. A nation arose healthy after it had been intoxicated by it,
So it was by it a light that illuminated the darknesses.

5. And it stood before it in the most sacred presence -
It is the sun, compared to it all are like mirages.

6. Upon you, my boon companion, by sipping its cups,
For in its cup there remains of it a clear draught.

7. And the cup is none but you, and the wine is its spirit -
Realize, you will find in intoxication diverse joys.

8. And in the world of generosity that has been enthroned
With its clusters, stop and make use of the bounty of favors.

9. And take from it a cluster - it is the body - then leave
Its densities and preserve the subtleties of graces.

10. And do not break the flask, for purity is in it,
Analyze and synthesize in principles and derivatives.

11. Until you see the face of the phial shining,
And the essence of the yeast in white tresses.

12. For there the near is humming transiently,
And the pure remedy has come removing the malady.

13. And the beautiful one came with the wind unveiling
On her hand - O goodly wind and beauty!

14. We bowed down to her - yes, we expired in love of her,
And that is because she gestured with a sign.

15. And its upshot is that all are curtains
Upon her enduring face, so hasten to extinction.
