• How much more of the mosque, of prayer and fasting?
  Better go drunk and begging round the taverns.
  Khayyam, drink wine, for soon this clay of yours
  Will make a cup, bowl, one day a jar.
  When once you hear the roses are in bloom,
  Then is the time, my love, to pour the wine;
  Houris and palaces and Heaven and Hell-
  These are but fairy-tales, forget them all.
