sarmast za mai-KHana guzar kardam dosh
sarmast za mai-ḳhāna guzar kardam dosh
piire dīdam za mai--o-subū-e-bar dosh
guftam za ḳhudā sharm na-dārī ai piir
guftā karam az ḳhudāst mai nosh-o-kHamosh
Inebriated, I passed last night, by the tavern door, I saw an aged person with a cask of wine on his shoulder; I said to him, O! Old man, dost thou not in God's name feel ashamed of thyself, he made reply, mercy is with God, drink and keep silent.
sarmast za mai-KHana guzar kardam dosh
pire didam za mai--o-subu-e-bar dosh
guftam za KHuda sharm na-dari ai pir
gufta karam az KHudast mai nosh-o-kHamosh
Inebriated, I passed last night, by the tavern door, I saw an aged person with a cask of wine on his shoulder; I said to him, O! Old man, dost thou not in God's name feel ashamed of thyself, he made reply, mercy is with God, drink and keep silent.
