Set out once more that cup, that wine, oh Saki—

Let my true place at last be mine, oh Saki!

My flask of poetry held the last few drops—

Unlawful, says our crabb’d devine, oh Saki.

Who has borne off Love’s valiant sword?

About an empty scabbard Wisdom’s hands twine, oh Saki.

Verse lights up life, while heart burns bright,

But fades for ever when those rays decline, oh Saki;

Bereave not of its moon my night;

I see a full moon in your goblet shine, oh Saki!

Allama Iqbal(Scholar Iqbal:Poet of the East)
