A poem by Hussain Salahuddin (the founder of the present day Majeediyya School in Malé) praising alcohol.

nethi dhanee sikundeege thehkan, ethi fodheh nulibey kamun

vethirivi whisky kula nufanduvaa, fulhi nikan fonuveynehee

vas nuhanu molhu mai vi dheyhun, masthuva fenunas furun

…

masthuvaa heekohliyas mithuraage raa nulibeynehey

naaruthah kendi burive dhiyas, baaru nethi mulhi hashugandun

yaaru thiyathuni aifulhun hama ethi fodheh nudhevenehey

saahibaa dhehvan kiyehthowey thikeh vasluge sharab
