Blindly do not go to the tavern O sober


Take off the garment of hypocrisy; here it is the abode of lover


But freemen and true lovers, you cannot find there


If you have still attachments so, never step there


Thou who are attached in rosary and cloister


A glass of wine from the tavern can’t you desire


Tear the prayer rug and break the door of tavern


If you want be aware of the top secret of secrets


If you are not aware of the love path and lovers affaire


Mind your own business and leave the way to the wayfarer


Open this cage and tear this snare


While ascending toward the abode of lover
