1. Put your sad cup aside from me
And drink the wine of youth from me

2. And descend from your lofty indifference, O radiant moon
And stop this warming and freezing

3. For innocent love is a revelation from God
And the love of beauty is an eternal art

4. So lift your heavy veil and quench
My burning thirst, and play upon your cheek my tune

5. And send your apparition in a dream, so that
I may compose verses—listen and sing.
