1. A beautiful cup that delights the soul with a glance
Even if one's heart were harder than stone

2. It kindles, with its elegance and artistry
Far greater raptures than the wine within contains

3. Drinking from it, for one of taste and insight
Gains a twofold rapture of spirit and of sight

4. It tells, now that the suns of both worlds gleam in it
The sun of dawn imprinted on the page of the moon

5. Until, as that fair face is mirrored in its sheen
Brimming over, the stars themselves grow dim

6. So delight in it, admire its wonders
And thank its Maker for this rose and breast

7. Drinking from it, for one who can taste and see
Gains a twofold drunkenness of wine and imagery
