Tipsy, Under a vast sky; Splendid dreams

How can I possibly sleep
This moonlit evening?
Come, my friends,
Let's sing and dance
All night long.

Stretched out,
Tipsy,
Under a vast sky;
Splendid dreams
Beneath the cherry blossoms.

Wild roses,
Plucked from fields,
Full of croaking frogs;
Float them in your wine
And enjoy every minute!

[Ryokan {Ryōkan Taigu} {1758-1831}, 'How can I possibly sleep', from Dewdrops on a Lotus Leaf: Zen Poems of Ryōkan {trans. by John Stevens}]
