Sol 5.6

  1. O master of the age, whom

    the rain itself envies for his generosity,

  2. and who holds a noble virtue no

    rain-bringing stars possess, along with the lion’s might!

  3. Do you not see the blossoms, how they have

    kindled a fire and made it blaze?

  4. Time itself has awakened for us,

    after it had lain asleep.

  5. So seize life, and do not

    ever turn back whatever comes from it.

  6. Keep on drinking, and say,

    “A free man keeps his promise,”

  7. from Sunday until Sunday,

    until Sunday, until Sunday.
