Time & Brevity
Cup-Bearer, Bring, Bring Here Again My Yestereven's Wine
Translated by E. J. W. Gibb (1882) · From Ottoman Poems (1882)
Time & Brevity
Cup-bearer, bring, bring here again my yestereven's wine;
My harp and rebeck bring, them bid address this heart of mine
Whilst still I live, 'tis meet that I should mirth and glee enjoy;
The day shall come when none may e'en my resting-place divine.
