mai KHur ki mudam rahat-e-ruh tu ust
mai ḳhur ki mudām rāhat-e-rūh tu uust
āsāish-e-jān-o-dil-e-majrūh tu uust
tūfān-e-ġham ar dar aayad az pesh-o-pasat
dar baada gurez kashtī-e-nūh tu uust
Drain the cup, for, ever in it lies thy soul's comfort, happiness of thy life and of thy burdened mind; if the tempest of grief comes to thee from fore and aft, run to the cup of wine as it (wine) is for thee Noah's ark in the deluge.
mai KHur ki mudam rahat-e-ruh tu ust
aasaish-e-jaan-o-dil-e-majruh tu ust
tufan-e-gham ar dar aayad az pesh-o-pasat
dar baada gurez kashti-e-nuh tu ust
Drain the cup, for, ever in it lies thy soul's comfort, happiness of thy life and of thy burdened mind; if the tempest of grief comes to thee from fore and aft, run to the cup of wine as it (wine) is for thee Noah's ark in the deluge.
