Joyful heart

Drinking wine and living joyfully, such is my way of life,

Being free from faith and heresy such is my religion.

I asked Time, my bride: '' what would be your Kaabin?"

"Your joyful heart!" she replied.

                                                              می خوردن و شاد بودن آبین من است     

                                                              فارغ بودن ز کفر و دین دین من است

                         گفت به عروس دهر کابین تو چیست                           

                                                                    گفتا دل خرم تو کابین من است
