This is the Day of Joy (4/11/2020)

This is the Day of Joy (4/12/2020)

This is the day of joy. Why should we be sad?

Today, we should drink wine from the cup of loyalty.

How long will we expect our sustenance

to be from a bread-maker, a water-carrier?

This is the time to be eating and drinking

from the hand of God.

Rubailer (2016), Rubai #4, page 205.
