at a glance from the cup-beareri gulped the whole cup of wine in onedraught and thus got intoxicated.o'divine mercy pardon my slip fromgrace as my eagerness for winedrinking pushed me in committingthis error.i could i dare to drink withoutpermission! it was only a wink frommy sweetheart which prompted me todo so.o'holy man don't scoff at my apparentirreligiosity, i am the one withhis knack of chit-chat coaxed thedivinity in granting me permission todrink.dark clouds are hovering near andbring along the musicians'captivating notes.who has spread her hair in the rainyseason because the breeze is pregnantwith sweet fragrance?larks dance in the open tunesplayed by the clouds as they arebringing along their own playinginstruments.the eyes of my sweetheart are sobewitchingly red that even the best wine of the tavern pales incomparison.being coquettish my sweetheartsometimes comes very near to me andat other time goes far away. but all thetime she is close to my heart.since the day my eyes met her lovelyones i am in perpetual state of slightintoxication.her residence in my heart iscamparable to a ray of lightpenetrating the pitch of darkness.this state of slight intoxication.your love and your bewitchingeyes have induced me to becomea drunkard.the whole universe is in a stateof drunkeness; the day, the night,the dawn, the dusk, everythingis perpetually intoxicated.even the wine cup and winebottle are drunk. And this is all aresult of your bashful eyes.o'lovely cup-bearer although yourrepository contains all sorts of wines,but i am only fond of the wine thatdrips from your drowsy eyes.this state of slight intoxication.i don't know how to say prayers nordo i know the rites of ablution. i justprostrate myself before you wheneveri see you, because your worship andyour love is my life.right from creation i am the slaveof love, and i don't care for beliefor disbelief.my sweetheart, since i have foundyou and have become the worshipperat the alter of your love i don't requirea mosque to prostrate myself and saymy prayers.this slight state of intoxication.even on the day of judgement when iam resurrected the scars of your lovewill be manifest on my body and yourpicture clinging to my heart.my extreme love of you has soelevated me spiritually that who ever ibow my heat it appears as if holykaaba is in front of me.it does not behoove you to jeer andmock your disappointed lover.for god sake o'lovely one turnaway your alluring eyes otherwise iwill totally lose control of my heart.i pray to god that like me you also fallin love with someone and thenhaving been rebuffed in dejection youalso roam about and lament the loss of your heart.to fall in love was a joke for me, but ithas turned into a serious affair andnow i am getting the punishment.while i am bewaiting the loss ofmy heart why are you laughingand making merry? What haveyou gained out of it?raise your hands in prayer for me andbe thankful of my friendship because itis i who has sharpened your charmsthus turning you lovely being into akiller.o'darling of my heart bestow a glanceof your lovely eyes at me, i am thesame halfdead anwar who as mentorand guide taught you to displaycaptivating manners and charmthe people with your conversation.
