I'll start with joy and pleasure and delight,
and throw myself into the tavern of the free.
From there I'll make my way to the gambling house,
and lose every last thing I own.
Explanation: The «tavern of the Magi» (kharabat) is a classic Persian image for a place of wine and abandon, a refuge from convention. I rendered it as 'tavern of the free' to keep that spirit.

خرم طرب و نشاط و عیش آغازم
خود را به خرابات مغان اندازم
زآنجا به قمارخانه راهی سازم
تا هر چه مرا هست به کل دربازم
