Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has contentions? Who has complaining? Who has wounds without cause? Who has red eyes?Those who linger long over wine, Those who go to taste mixed wine.Do not look at wine when it is red, When it sparkles in the cup, When it goes down smoothly;In the end it bites like a snake And stings like a viper.Your eyes will see strange things And your mind will say perverse things.And you will be like one who lies down in the middle of the sea, Or like one who lies down on the top of a mast.“ They struck me, but I did not become ill; They beat me, but I did not know it. When will I awake? I will seek another drink.”
