1. A cup of refined gold

    in the breeze of Marmāḥūz;

  2. I sought it at dawn with a prince,

    noble, astride a young she-camel,

  3. his face embroidered with beau—

    —ty, in the finest embroidery.

  4. He kept bringing together in the blend—

    —ing, between goblet and jug,

  5. water and fire—then speak of Christ—

    —mas and Nowruz—

  6. until we left the shirt of dark—

    —ness without a seam.
