To drink up the potion of the miracle,
And to taste it on my miraculous tongue?
A metaphor will do it to me like a speech of a figure,
To write that metaphor, to enlighten my smile?
Speech of figure will wise my hands like signs –
The potion of the miracle will preach to my aligns;
O, a metaphor does the riddle to my mysterious brain.
Inspired by Hafez (The nightingales are drunk)
