آن قصر که جمشید در او جام گرفت

dear forum members, what is the literal meaning of    جام گرفت

 ?

got a cup?

meaning had a drink ? had a cup of wine ?  

omar khayyaam , poem

آن قصر که جمشید در او جام گرفت
آهو بچه کرد و روبه آرام گرفت
بهرام که گور می‌گرفتی همه عمر
دیدی که چگونه گور بهرام گرفت

aan ghasr ke jamshid dar oo jaam gereft
aahoo bachche kard oo roobe aaraam gereft
bahraam ke goor mi gerefti hame o'mr
didi ke chegoone goor bahraam gereft

that palace where jamshid got his highs
deer got youngs and fox time off strifes
bahraam hunting goor used to emprise
you saw how in goor , bahraam now lies

that آن
palace قصر
which که
cup جام
to get گرفتن
deer آهو
fox روبه 
peaceful  آرام
onager گور
life عمر
whole همه

جام = chalice
Bahram arrogantly drank from his chalice.
