Drink the thing that strengthens the soul: rose-red wine that opens the heart to grace.
I am the servant of the one who drinks it at nightfall, and the slave of the one who takes more of it at dawn.
Explanation: The morning draught ('sabuh') is the traditional dawn cup of wine, a favorite image in Persian poetry.

من چاکر آن که در صبوح افزاید
