REVEL, by ABUL HASAN OF SANTA MARIA
First Line: The brightest night of all
Last Line: Still kept its anklet nigh.
First Line: The brightest night of all
Last Line: Still kept its anklet nigh.
The brightest night of all
The nights that I recall
Was that I never ceased
Upon the wine to feast.
And as I strove to keep
My eyes apart from sleep,
To the cup's ear-ring I
Still kept its anklet nigh.
