Preface The translations appearing in this collection are by Henry Wilberforce Clarke who used the Upjohn’s Calcutta version (1791) of Divan of Hafez in 1891. The original Calcutta edition had a number of mistakes and it is verified that some of the poems do not belong to Hafez and are added afterwards. The most reliable edition of Divan is published at Tehran in 1320/1941 under the editorship of Mirza Mohammad Qazvini and Dr Qasem Ghani. This edition has admitted 495 ghazals as unquestionably genuine, beside 3 qasidehs, 2 mathnavis, 34 occasional pieces (muqatta’at) and 42 robais, a total of 573 poems. I have selected those poems that appear in Qazvini and Ghani edition and partially rewritten some of the translations to be more poetic and understandable. Dr. Behrouz Homayoun Far 2001/10/6 Calgary, Canada

(1) Ho! O Saki, pass around and offer the bowl: For love at first appeared easy, but difficulties have occurred. By reason of the perfume of the musk-pod, that, at the end, the breeze displayeth from that fore-lock, From the twist of its musky curl, what blood befell the hearts! In the stage of the Beloved, mine what ease and pleasure, when momently, The beil giveth voice, saying: “Bind ye up the chattels of existence!” With wine, becolor the prayer-mat if the Pir of the Magians bid thee; For of the way and usage of the stages not without knowledge is the holy traveler. The dark night, and the fear of the wave, and the whirlpool so fearful. The light-burdened ones of the shore, how know they our state? By following my own fancy, me to ill fame all my work brought: Secret, how remaineth that great mystery whereof assemblies speak? Hafez! if thou desire the presence from Him be not absent: When thou visitest thy Beloved, abandon the world; and let it go.

(2) The rectitude of work, where? and, I ruined where? Behold the distance of the Path, from where to where? My heart wearied of the cloister, and of the patched garment of hypocrisy: The Magians’ cloister; where? the pure wine where? With profligacy, what connections have rectitude and piety? The hearing of the exhortation where? The melody of the stringed instrument where? From the Friend’s face, what gaineth the dark heart of enemies? The dead lamp, where? The candle of the resplendent sun, where? The dust of Thy threshold is like the kuhl of our vision: Where go we? Order. Hence, where? Look not at the apple of the chin; for in the path is a pit: O heart! where goest thou? With this haste, where? He is gone! To him, be the time of union a pleasant memory. Gone is that glance, where? and that reproof, where? O friend! from Hafez seek neither ease nor patience: Ease, what? Patience, what? Sleep, where?

(3) If that Bold One of Shiraz gain our heart, For His dark mole, I will give Samarkand and Bukhara. Said! give the wine remaining; for, in Paradise, thou wilt not have The bank of the water of the Ruknabad nor the rose of the garden of Musalla. Alas! These saucy dainty ones sweet of work, the torment of the city, Take patience from the heart even as the men of Turkistan the tray of plunder. The beauty of the Beloved is in no need of our imperfect love: Of lustre, and color, and mole and tricked line, what need hath the lovely face? By reason of that beauty, daily increasing that Yusof had, I know That Love for Him would bring Zulaikha forth from the screen of chastity. Thou spakest ill of me; and I am happy. God Most High forgive thee thou spakest well: The bitter reply suiteth the ruby lip, sugar-eating. O Soul! Hear the counsel, for, dearer than the soul, Hold happy youths the counsel of the wise old man. The tale of minstrel and of wine utter; little seek the mystery of time; For this mystery, none solved by skill; and shall not solve. Thou utteredest a ghazal; and threadedest pearls. Hafez! come and sweetly sing That, on thy verse, the sky may scatter the cluster of the Pleiades.

(4) O breeze! with softness speak to the beautiful fawn, Saying: Thou hast given to us desire for the mountain and the desert. The sugar-seller, whose life be long! why Maketh he no inquiry of the welfare of the parrot sugar of devouring? O rose! perhaps the pride of beauty hath not given thee permission, That thou makest no inquiry as to the state of the distraught nightingale. By beauty of disposition, people of vision one can captivate: Not by snare and net, take they the wise bird. I know not why the color of constancy, they have not Those straight of stature, dark of eye, moon of face. When thou sittest with the beloved; and drinkest wine, Bring to mind the beloved ones, wind-measuring. Of defect in thy beauty, one cannot speak save to this degree That the way of love and of constancy belongeth not to the lovely face. On the sky, what if, of Hafez’s utterances Zuhra’s singing should bring to dancing the Masiha.

(5) For God’s sake. O pious ones! forth from the hand, goeth my heart. For God’s sake: O the pain that the hidden mystery should be disclosed. We are boat-stranded ones! O fair breeze! arise: It may be that, again, we may behold the face of the Beloved. For the space of ten days, the sphere’s favor is magic and sorcery: O friend! regard as booty, goodness in friends. Last night in the assembly of the rose and of wine, the bulbul sweetly sang: O Saki! give wine: O intoxicated ones! come to life! O generous one! in thanks for thy own safety One day, make inquiry of the welfare of the foodless darvish. The ease of two worlds is the explanation of these two words: With friends, kindness; with enemies, courtesy. In the street of good name, they gave us no admission: If thou approve not, change our Fate. That bitter wine, which the Sufi called “The mother of iniquities,” To us, is more pleasant and more sweet than the kisses of virgins. In the time of straitedness, strive in pleasure and in intoxication: For, this elixir of existence maketh the beggar Karun. Don’t rebel, due to defiance thou burnt like candle Darling in whose hands granite is like wax soft The cup of wine is Sikandar’s mirror. Behold So that it may show thee the state of Dara’s kingdom. Life-givers, are the lovely ones, Persian-prattling: O Saki! this news, give to the old men of Fars. Of himself, Hafez put not on this patched, wine-stained garment O Shaikh, pure of sins! hold us excused.

(6) To the Sultan’s attendants, who will convey this prayer “In thanks for sovereignty, away from sight drive not the beggar?” From the watcher, demon of nature, I take shelter in my God Perchance that gleaming light may, for God’s sake, give a little aid. If Thy dark eye-lash made for our blood, O Idol! think of its deceit; and, make no mistake When Thou enkindlest thy face, Thou consumest a world, From this, what profit hast Thou that Thou doest no kindness All night, in this hope I am that the breeze of dawn, With the message of lovers, will cherish the lover. O Beloved! what is the tumult that to lovers thou displayedest Thy face like the gleaming moon, Thy stature like the heart-ravishing cypress? O Murshed! to the lover Hafez morning-rismg, give thou, for God’s sake, a draught, May his prayer of the morning-time avail thee!

(7) O Sufi! come; for bright is the mirror of the cup: That thou mayst see the brightness of the wine of ruby hue. Of profligates intoxicated as the mystery within the veil; For, this state is not the Zahed’s, lofty of degree. The Anka is the prey of none. Up-pluck thy snare: For, here ever, in the hand of the snare, is wind. At time’s banquet, enjoy one or two cups; and go: Verily desire not perpetual union. O heart! youth’s vigor hath departed; and, from life, thou hast not plucked a single rose: Elderly of head, show skill of name and fame. Strive in the pleasure of the present. As, when no water remained, “Adam let go the garden of the house of safety.” On our part, at thy threshold, many are thy rights of service. O Sir! again, in pity, look upon thy slave. The disciple of the cup of Jamshid is Hafez. O breeze, go: And give salutation from the slave to the Shaikh of Jam.

(8) O Saki! arise; and give the cup: Strew dust on the head of the grief of time. In my palm, place the cup of wine so that, from my breast, I may pluck off this patched garment of blue color. Although in the opinion of the wise, ill-fame is ours, Not name nor fame, do we desire. Give wine! with this wind of pride, how long, Dust on the head of useless desire? The smoke of the sigh of my burning heart Consumed these immature ones. Of the secret of my distraught heart, a friend, Among high and low, none, I see. Glad is my heart with a heart’s ease, Who, from my heart, once took ease. At the cypress in the sward, again looketh not That one, who beheld that cypress of silvern limb. Hafez! day and night, be patient, in adversity: So that, in the end, thou mayst, one day, gain thy desire.

(9) The splendor of youth’s time again belongeth to the garden; The glad tidings of the rose reacheth the bulbul sweet of song. O breeze! if again thou reach the youths of the meadow, Convey our service to the cypress, the rose, and the sweet basil. If the young Magian, wine-seller, display such splendor, I will make my eye-lash the dust-sweeper of the door of the wine-house. O thou that drawest, over the moon, the polo of purest ambergris, Make not distraught of state, me of revolving head. This crowd that laugheth at those drinking the wine-dregs, I fear? They will, in the end, ruin their Faith. Be the friend of the men of God; for, in Noah’s ark, Was a little dust, that purchased not the deluge for a drop of water. Forth from the house of the sphere, go; and bread, seek not. For, in the end, this dark cup slayeth the guest. To him, whose last sleeping-place is with two handfuls of earth, Say “Thine what need to exalt the turrets to the sky?” My moon of Kan’an! the throne of Egypt is thine: The time is that when thou shouldst did farewell to the prison. Hafez! drink wine; practice profligacy and be happy; but, Like others, make not the Kuran the snare of deceit.

(10) Last night from the Masjed towards the wine tavern our Pir came: O friends of the Path! after this, what is our plan? How may we, disciples, turn to the Ka’ba, when Our Pir hath his face towards the house of the Vintner. In the Fire-worshipper’s Tavern we also shall be lodging; For, in the Covenant of eternity without beginning, even so was our destiny. In the bond of His tress, how happy is the Heart! If Wisdom know, In pursuit of our tress-chain, the wise will become distraught. By its grace, Thy beautiful face explained to us a verse of the Koran: For that reason, in our explanation, is naught save grace and beauty. A single night, against Thy stony heart, ever effecteth aught Our sigh, fire-raining and the burning of our heart in the night-time? Beyond the sphere passeth the arrow of our sigh. Hafez! silence. Show compassion to thy soul; avoid the arrow of ours.

(11) Saki! with the light of wine, up-kindle the cup of ours. Minstrel! speak, saying: “The world’s work hath gone to the desire of ours.” In the cup, we have beheld the reflection of the face of the Beloved O thou void of knowledge of the joy of the perpetual wine-drinking of ours. Never dieth that one, whose heart is alive with love: On the world’s record, is written the everlasting existence of ours. The coy glance and the grace of those straight of stature till With grace, moving like a lofty pine-tree, cometh the cypress of ours. O breeze! if thou pass by the rose-bed of beloved ones, Take care! present to the beloved the message of ours. From thy memory, our name why purposely takest thou? Itself cometh, when cometh no recollection of ours. To the eye of our heart-binding beloved pleasing is intoxication For that reason, to intoxication they have given the rein of ours. On the day of up-rising, I fear, a profit taketh not. The lawful bread of the Shaikh, more than the unlawful water of ours. Hafez! from thy eye, keep shedding a tear-drop; It may be, that the bird of union may attempt the snare of ours. The green sea of sky, and the bark of the new moon, Are immersed in the favor of Haji Kivam of ours.

(12) O! the splendor of the moon-beauty from the illumined face of Thine! The lustre of beauteousness from the chin-dimple of Thine! My soul at the lip desireth the sight of Thee: Back it goeth; forth, it cometh; what order is Thine? ‘ By the revolution of Thy eye, none obtained a portion of enjoyment: Best, that they sell the veil of chastity to the intoxicated ones of Thine. Our sleep-stained fortune will, perchance, become vigilant, On that account that a little water on its eye, expressed that gleaming face of Thine. Along with the wind, send from Thy cheek a handful of roses: It may be that I may perceive a perfume from the dust of the rose garden of Thine. O Sakis of the banquet of Jam, long be your life; desire., Although our cup be not full of wine at the circulation of yours. My heart worketh desolation. Inform the heart-possessor: Verily, O friends, I swear by soul of mine and soul of Thine. O Lord! when these desires, that are our companions appear, Collected will be the heart of ours; and dishevelled the tress of Thine. When by us, Thou passest, from dust and from blood keep far thy skirt: For, on this Path many a one hath become a sacrifice of Thine. O breeze! from us, to the dwellers of Yazd say: The head of those not recognizing truths the polo ball of yours. From the plain of propinquity, though we be far, not far is desire: The slave of your King we are, and the praise-utterer of yours. O King of Kings, lofty of star! for God’s sake, a blessing, That, like the sky, I may kiss the dust of the court of yours. Hafez uttereth a prayer. Listen: say an amin! Be my daily food the lips sugar-scattering of Thine.

Went sleep from my eye in this liver-consuming thought Whose bosom is the dwelling and sleeping place of thee Tue darvish, thou askest not! and I fear that there is Neither thought of his forgiveness, nor care for his punishment, to thee. That eye of intoxication struck the path of the lover’s heart: From this way, ‘tis manifest that wine is intoxicated of thee. The great arrow of a glance that, at my heart, thou castedest, missed: Let us see what designeth the good judgement of thee. The wail and plaint that I made, all thou heardest not: O idol! ‘tis manifest that lofty is the station of thee. In this desert, the water pool is far. Keep sense, So that the creatures of the desert, may not, with the mirage, deceive thee. O heart! while in the path of old age, by what way goest thou? In mistake, all at once, became expended the season of youth of thee. O thou heart-kindling palace that art the dwelling of affection, O Lord! ruined, let not the calamity of time make thee. Hafez is not a slave who fleeth from his master, Show a little kindness; come back; for I am ruined through reproach of thee.

Not the picture of the two worlds was, when was the color of love: Not at this time, Love’s foundation, did Time cast. With one glance, in boasting, that the Narcissus made A hundred calamities into the world, thy eye’s deceit cast. Wine drunk, sweat expressed when thou wentest to the sward: That fire into the ruddy Arghavan, thy sweat cast. Me, drunken passing the lawn yard The bud of Thy lips made me think, last night. The violet fastened u p her twisted tresses: Before the assembly, the tale of Thy tress, the wind cast. Through shame of that one who likened it to thy face, Dust into her own mouth, by the hand of the wind, the lily cast. Through austerity, I should never have seen the wine or the minstrel. Into this and into that, desire for young Magians cast. Now, with water of ruby wine, I wash my religious garment: From one’s self, the lot of eternity without beginning one cannot cast. Perchance in this disastrous state, was the opening of Hafez, Whom, into the wine of Magians, the destiny of eternity without beginning cast. Now, the world becometh to my desire. For time’s revolution Me, into the service of the Khwaja of the world, cast.

The season of austerity boasters, weighty of life, hath passed: Hath risen, the time of gladness and of joy-making of profligates. Him, who like us drinketh the cup, what reproach reacheth? In regard to the profligate lover, neither is defect, nor is fault. That wine-drinker in whom is neither the face, nor hypocrisy, Is better than an austerity-boaster, in whom is the face of hypocrisy. We are neither hypocritical profligates, nor the companions of hypocrisy: Witness to this state is He, who “is the Knower-of-hearts.” The ordinances of God, we perform; and do evil to none: Whatever they say is “unlawful,” we say not “it is lawful.” What mattereth it - if thou and I drink some goblets of wine? Wine is of the blood of grapes; it is not of your blood. This is not the defect that, from this defect, injury will be: And if it be the defect, what matter? The man without defect is where?

(21) Went heart and faith; and the Heart-Ravisher with reproach arose, And said: “Sit not with me; for, from thee, safety hath risen.” Of whom heardest thou, who at this banquet, hath awhile sat happy: Who, at the end of the companionship, not in remorse hath risen. If, with its tongue, the candle expressed a boast of that laughing face In fine, nights before thy lovers, it hath risen. In the sward, from the border of the rose and the cypress, the spring breeze, In longing for that cheek and stature of Thine, hath risen. Intoxicated, Thou passedest by, and from the Khilvatis of angels The tumult of resurrection at the sight of Thee hath risen. Before thy gait, from shame its foot uplifted not, The head-extending cypress that, with grace of stature and of form, hath risen. Hafez! cast off this religious garment. Perchance thou mayst take thy life: For, from the religious garment of hypocrisy and of miracle, fire hath risen.

(22) O Heart-ravisher! thou art not a speech-recognizer. Here, the fault is: When thou hearest the speech of people of heart speak not saying: “A fault it is.” Neither to this world, nor to the next world, boweth my head Blessed be God! for this tumult that, in our head, is. Within this shattered heart, I know not who is. For, I am silent; and in clamour and tumult, it is. Forth from the screen, went my heart. O Minstrel! where art thou? Ho! sing. For, on account of this note, in melody, our work is. To the world’s work, never was ‘attention mine; In my sight, Thy face its happy adorner thus is. From a fancy that I mature, nights I have not slept: Wine-sickness of a hundred nights, I have: the wine-house, where is? With my heart’s blood, thus it is that the cloister became stained: If ye wash me in wine, lawful at your hand it is? In the cloister of the magians, me dear they hold for the reason That, in our heart, a fire that dieth not ever is. What was the melody that last night, the minstrel played? Life passed; and yet, full of that melody, my brain is? Last night, within my heart, the announcement of love for Thee, they gave Yet, with desire, full of that voice, the plain of my heart is?

Behold, what saith the apple of Thy chin! “Many a Yusuf of Egypt fallen into the pit, of ours is.” If to our hand reach not Thy long tress, The sin of the perturbed fortune, and of the short-hand of ours is.

Although, apparently, He is veiled from our sight, He, ever, in the sight of the tranquil heart, of ours is.

The every moment when, with the fountain of Love, I performed ablution, I expressed completely on all that is, four Laudations, Allah Akbar! Give wine that I may give thee news of the mystery of Fate: By whose face, I became a Lover; and by whose perfume, intoxicated. Here, less than the ants’ waist is the waist of the mountain: O wine-worshipper! Be not hopeless of the door of God’s mercy. Save that intoxicated eye the eye reach him not! None state happy beneath this turquoise vault. Be my soul the ransom of Thy mouth! For, in the garden of vision, The Parterre-arrayer of the World established no rose-bud more sweet than this rose-bud. Through the fortune of Love for thee, Hafez became a Soleiman: That is Or Union with thee, he hath naught in hand save wind.

The foundation of penitence that, firm as a rock, appeared, How the crystal cup hath shattered it, behold! Bring wine! for, in the Court of the Independent One, Whether the shepherd or the Sultan; whether sensible or insensible Since there is necessity for departing from this Inn of two doors. The gallery and the arch of thy living, whether lofty or low Unattainable, is the place of ease without toil: Yes: with the decree of calamity they established the “day of Alast.” Grieve neither at existence nor at non-existence: Be thy mind, happy. For the end of every perfection that is - is non-existence. The pomp of being an Asaf, the wind-steed, and the language of birds Went to the wind; and from them, the Khwaja obtained no profit. With the wing and the feather go not from the Path. For, the arrow far-flying Keepeth, the air awhile; but, at last, lieth in the dust. Hafez! What thanks, uttereth the tongue of thy reed for the reason that They take the utterance of its speech from hand to hand?

Wherefore shall I say: “Non-existence” when my expectation is with Him? When He arose, the candle of the heart of friends went out: When He sate down, the spectators’ clamour arose. If noisome civet became fragrant, it was associated with His tress: If indigo became a bowman, it was associated with His eye-brow.

For without the Friend, Every draft of sweet water that thou givest is the very essence of torment. Alas! The Heart-Ravisher nath departed; and in the weeping eye The picturing of the fancy of a letter from Him is the picture on water. O eye! be vigilant. For, one cannot be safe, From this lasting torrent that occurreth in the stage of sleep. The Beloved One openly passeth, by thee; but Keepeth seeing strangers. On that account, the Beloved is veil-bound. Since the rose beheld the grace of sweet on thy colored cheek, In envy’s fire, through the heart’s grief, it is immersed in rose-water. The world around is green and so green, but the world is only a mirage. In the corner of my brain, seek no place of counsel: For this cell is full of the hum of the harp and of the ribab. If Hafez be lover, or profligate, or glance-player, what then? In the time of youth, many a strange way is necessary.

(33) To him that hath chosen solitude, of the spectacle is what need? When the street of the Beloved is, of the desert is what need? O Soul! By the need of God that is thine, At last, a moment, ask, saying: “Ours is what need?” O Sovereign of beauty! For God’s sake, I consumed. At last ask, saying: The beggar’s, is what need? We are the Lords of need, and is no tongue to question: In the presence of the Merciful One, petitioning is what need? If intention be Thine against our life, there is no need of pretence: When the chattels are Thine, of plunder, is what need? The cup, world-displaying is the luminous mind of the Friend: Then, of the revealing of my own necessity is what need? Past is that time when I used to bear the burden of favor of the Sailor: When the jewel appeared, of the Ocean is what need? O beggar-lover! when the soul-giving lip of the Beloved Knoweth thee, petitioning for an allowance is what need? O pretender! go: I have naught with thee: Dear friends are present. Of enemies is what need? Hafez! End thy verse: for skill itself becometh clear: Disputation and contention with the pretender is what need?

Thou scratchedest the heart of Arefs: Wondrous, are the subtleties beneath the snare of the grain of Thine. O nightingale! glad of heart be, in union with the rose; For, in the sward, the amorous warbling all is thine. To Thy lip, entrust the remedy for our feeble heart. For exhilarating is the ruby-medicine, in the treasury of Thine. In body, unworthy of Thy service am I; But my soul, its essence is the dust of the threshold of Thine. Not that one am I to give my heart’s coin to every impudent one: Is the treasure door with the seal of Thine, and the mark of Thine. O horseman, excellent of work! what a magician indeed thou art, That an impetuous steed, like the sky, is obedient to the whip of thine. My place, what? When the sky, the juggler, staggereth At the sorceries that are in the store-house of pastime of Thine. Now, the melody of Thy assembly bringeth the sky to dancing; For, the verse of Hafez, sweet of speech, is the melody of Thine.

(35) O admonisher! Go about thy own work: what is this tumult? From the hand, my heart hath fallen: what hath befallen thee? The connection with Him, which God out of naught hath created Is a subtlety which no created being hath solved. So long as His lip causeth me not to reach my desire, like the reed. In my ear, the counsel of the whole world is like wind. Independent of the eight abodes of Paradise is the beggar of Thy street: Free of both worlds is Thy bound captive. Although love’s intoxication hath received me; yet, By that intoxication, the foundation of own existence is prosperous. O heart! bewail not of the injustice of Thy beloved’s violence. For, the Beloved Hath thus advised thee: and this is justice. Hafez! Go; utter no tale; breathe no majestic verse, For I remember many a one of these wondrous conceits and magic verses.

In the midst of the dark morning, is thy eye of sorcery: This is the degree, whereto this prescription, ineffective fell. That mole in the curve of thy tress knowest thou what it is? A dot of ink, that, in the curve of Jim fell. In the rose-bed of the garden of thy cheek, thy musky tress, What is it? A peacock, that, in the garden of delights, fell. O Friend of my soul! In desire of thy perfume, my heart, Behind the wind, as road-dust, fell. Like the dust, this dusty body cannot rise From the head of thy street since it severely fell. O thou of Isa breath! the shade of thy cypress on my body, Is the reflection of a soul, that, on the rotten bone, fell. In memory of Thy lip, that one, whose place is none save the Ka’ba, I saw that, a dweller, at the Tavern-door, him befell. O dear soul! With grief for thee, to Hafez heart-lost Is a great friendship that, in the ancient covenant, fell.

At the time of farewell to Thee, from much weeping that I made, Far from Thy face! to my eye, light hath remained not. From my eye, Thy image departed; and said: “Alas, inhabited, this corner hath remained not.” Union with Thee kept death from my head: Now, from the fortune of separation from Thee, far, it hath remained not. Near is that moment when the watcher shall say: Far, from thy door! “That abandoned shattered one hath remained not.” For me, patience is the remedy for separation from Thee. But, How can one exercise patience when power hath remained not? In separation from Thee, if to my eye no water remained, Say: “Spill the blood of the liver; for excuse hath remained not.” Through grief and weeping, Hafez engaged not in laughter, To the grief-stricken one, desire for the feast, hath remained not.

What religion hast thou adopted, Wherein our blood is more lawful to thee than mother’s milk? Since, from afar, thou seest the picture of grief, drink wine: The diagnosis, we have made: certain is the cure. Forth from the threshold of the Pir of wine-sellers, why draw I my head? In this his head, is fortune; in this his door, tranquility. Love’s pain is but one tale-no more Wonderful this That from every one whom I hear, the tale is not repeated. Last night, He gave promise; and, in His head, had the wine: To-day, let us see what He saith; in His head is what. Shiraz and the water of Ruknabad, and the breeze of pleasant air, Them, contemn not; for they are the lustre of adornment of seven territories of the world. From the water of life of Khizr, whose place is the Land of Darkness, it is far Up to our water, whose fountain is Allah-u Akbar. We take not the honor of poverty and of contentment: To the king, speak saying: Daily victuals are destined.

The rose, veil unlifted prepared to depart: O nightingale bewail; for the plaint of heart-wounded ones is pleasant. To the night-singing bird, be the good news that, in Love’s path, To the Friend, the vigilant one, weeping at night is pleasant. In the world’s market, is no happy-heartiness. If there be, The way of profligacy and of happy-being of hypocrites is pleasant. From the tongue of the Lily, came to my ear this noble speech, “In the old cloister, the work of those light of burden is pleasant.” Hafez! Abandoning the world is the path of happy-heartiness. So long as thou thinkest not that the circumstance of World-Possessors is pleasant.

(44) Now that in the palm of the rose, is the cup of pure wine, In it praise, is the nightingale with a hundred thousand tongues. Seek the book of verse and make way to the desert: What time is this for the College, and the argument of the Kashf-i-Kashshaf? Yesterday, the Head of the College was intoxicated; and gave decision, Saying: “Wine is unlawful, but better than the property of legacies.” No order is thine for the dregs, or for the pure: Drink happily; For, whatever our Said did is the essence of grace. Pluck up thy attachments to the people: take note of the work from the Anka; For, the clamour of those sitting in solitude is from Kaf to Kaf. The tale of claimants and the fancy of thy fellow-workers, Resemble the tale of the gold-stitcher and the mat-weaver. Hafez! silence: and these subtleties like red gold, Keep. For the false coiner of the city is the Banker.

(45) At this time, a friend, who is free from defect, Is the goblet of pure wine, and the song-book. Go alone; for the highway of safety is narrow: Seize the cup; for dear life is without exchange. In the world, not I alone am distressed from being without work From learning without doing, is the grief of the learned. In this thoroughfare full of tumult, to reason’s eye, The World and the world’s work is without permanency and without place. Seize the tress of the one of moon face, and utter not the tale; For fortune and misfortune are the effects of Venus and of Saturn. Great hope of union with thee, had my heart. But, on life’s path, death is hope’s robber. At no time, will they find him sensible: For this reason, that Hafez is intoxicated with the cup of eternity without beginning.

In our assembly, the moon of the Friend’s face is full. In our order, the wine-cup is lawful; but, O Cypress, rose of body! without thy face, unlawful. My ear is all on the voice of the reed; and, the melody of the harp: My eye is all on Thy ruby lip, and on the circulation of the cup. In our assembly, mix not Perfume; for our soul, Every moment, receiveth perfume from the fragrance of the tip of Thy tress. Say ye naught of the sweetness of candy and sugar; For my desire is for Thy sweet lip. From the time when the treasure of grief for Thee was dweller in my ruined heart, The corner of the tavern is ever my abode. Of shame, why speakest thou? For from shame is my name: Of name, why askest thou? For from name is my shame. Wine-drinker, distraught of head, profligate, and glance-player I am: In this city, who is that one who is not like this? To the Muhtaseb, utter not my crime; for he also Is ever like me in desire of the drinkers of wine. Hafez! sit not a moment without wine, and the Beloved ‘Tis the season of the rose, and of the Jasmine, and of the celebration of fasting!

The diadem of profligacy, Time gave to none save to that one Who, exaltation of the world in this cup, knew. To the threshold of the tavern, whoever found a Path, The mysteries of the cloister from the bounty of the cup of wine knew. From the Saki’s line, whoever read the mystery of both worlds, The mysteries of Jamshid’s cup with the pictures of the road-dust knew. Seek not from us aught save the devotion of the distraught, For the being wise, a sin, the Shaikh of our religious order knew. From the eye of the Saki, my heart desired not safety for life; For the way of that Bold One, black of heart, my heart knew. From the violence of the constellation of nativity, my eye in the mornings So wept, that Nahid beheld, and the moon knew. The tale of Hafez and the cup which he secretly drinketh What room for the Muhtaseb and the watchman? The king knew. A king of lofty rank is that one who, the nine halls of the sky, The form of the curve of the arch of his court, knew.

Only the bird of the morning knoweth the value of the rose bud: For, not every one that read a page, the meaning knew. To my work-stricken heart, I offered two worlds. Save love for Thee, the rest all effacement, it knew. Passed hath that time, when I thought of the people. Now since Of this my secret pleasure, the Muhtaseb knew. The Heart-Ravisher regarded not our ease, time’s business: If not, on our part, the heart-expectation, He knew. The stone and the clay, the ruby and the cornelian, maketh with auspicious glance Whoever the value of the breath of the breeze of Yaman knew. O thou that learnest Love’s verse from Reason’s book! I fear this subtlety by investigation, thou wilt not know. Bring wine! for of the rose of the world’s garden, boasteth not. He who, the robbery of the autumn-wind, knew. This versified jewel of verse that, from his mind, he evoked, Hafez The effect of the instruction of Asaf the second, knew.

(54) From weeping, the pupil of my eye seated in blood is, Behold the state of men in search of Thee, how it is. To the memory of Thy ruby and wine-like intoxicated eye, From griefs cup, the wine of that ruby that I drink, blood is. From the east of the head of the street, the sun of Thy countenance, If it rise, my fortune auspicious is. The tale of Shirin’s lip, Farhad’s talk is; The twist of Laila’s tress, Majnun’s dwelling is. Seek my heart. For thy stature, like the cypress is heart-seeking. Utter speech. For thy speech gracious and weighed is. O Saki! From the circulation of the cup, cause a little mercy to reach my soul: For, from the grief of the sphere’s revolution, the heart’s sorrow is. From that time when, from my grasp, went the precious musical chord, Like the river Jeyhun, my skirt’s border is. Gladsome, how may my sorrowful heart become By the power that beyond my power is? Through distraughtness, Hafez seeketh for the true Beloved: Like ‘an indigent one, who a seeker of Qarun’s treasure is.

(55) The curve of Thy tress is the snare of infidelity and of Faith: This matter is a little from His work-shop. Thy beauty is the miracle of beauty. But, The tale of Thy glance is clear magic. How can one take one’s life from Thy bold eye, That ever is in ambuscade with the bow? Be a hundred Afarin! on that dark eye, Which, in lover-slaying is the creator of magic. A wonderful science is the science of love’s form: For the seventh sky is the seventh land. Thou thinkest not that the evil-speaker departed, and took his life: His account is with the two noble recorders. Hafez! be not secure from the snare of His tress. That taketh the heart; and is now in fancy religion.

Thou and the Tuba tree; and we and the form of the Beloved; Every one’s thought is to the limit of ambition of His. If I be soiled of skirt, what loss? For the whole world is the evidence of the innocence of His. I, who am in that holy place, where the breeze Is the screen-holder of the fold of the dignity of His. Passed the time of Majnun; and our turn it is: Every one, a space of five days is the term of His. The realm of being a lover; and the corner of joy, All I have is from the favor of the fortune of His. No fear, if me and my heart pass away The goal is in between the healthiness of His. Regard not his external poverty. For Hafez’s Heart is the treasury of the love of His.

Although those sweet of mouth are Sovereigns, yet He is the Soleiman of the age; for the seal is with Him. He is fair of face, perfect in skill, pure of sin; Verily the spirit of the Pure Ones of the two worlds is with Him. The black mole that is on that wheat-hued face, The mystery of that grain, that became the highway robber of Adam, is with it. My heart-ravisher hath set out on a journey. O friends! for God’s sake, What shall I do with my wounded heart; for the medicine is with Him. With whom, can one discuss this matter, that that stoney-hearted One, Slew us; and the breath of Isa of Maryam is with Him. Hafez is of the believers. Hold him dear. For the forgiveness of many a noble soul is with Him.

My Friend’s equal, I have not seen; although of the moon and of the shining sun, The mirrors opposite to the Friend’s face I placed. Of our straitened heart, giveth the breeze what news, That, like the folding of the leaves of the rosebud, tightly folded it is. Not alone, am I a wine-drinker of this cloister, profligate consuming: O many a head in this workshop is the dust of the pitcher! Verily, Thou combedest Thy tress, ambergris-scattering, Since that the breeze became like civet; and the dust, beperfumed with ambergris. The sprinkling of Thy face, every rose-leaf that is in the sward: The ransom of Thy lofty form, every cypress that is on the river-bank. In the description of His Love, the tongue of speech is dumb: What room for the reed, split of tongue, folly uttering? Thy face came into my heart: my desire I shall gain: For, after the happy omen, is the happy state. Not, at this time, is Hafez’s heart in the fire of search: For, the bereaved Eternity is like the self-growing wild tulip.

To such a degree, I wept that every one who passed, When he beheld running the pearl of our tears, spake saying: “This stream what is? That mouth, no trace whereof I see, is naught: That waist is only a hair; and I know not what that hair is. At the picture of Thy form, I wonder saying: How goeth it not From my eye, whose work, momently, washing and washing is. Speechless, Thy tress draweth my heart: Against Thy heart-alluring tress, the way of speech whose is? A lifetime it is since we perceived the perfume of Thy tress Yet in the perfume-place of my heart, the perfume of that perfume is. Hafez! bad is thy distraught state; but, Good, to the memory of the Friend’s tress thy distraught state is.

Till the morning of the day of assembling, through intoxication, raiseth not his hand. Whoever, in Eternity without beginning, drinketh like me a draught from the cup of the Friend. A little by way of explanation of my own desire, I uttered not on that account It is head-pain to show more than this importunity to the Friend. Into my eye, I put as collyrium, if it be gained, The dust of the precious path that becometh honored by the footstep of the Friend. My inclination, towards Union; and His towards separation: I abandoned my own desire that there might issue the desire of the Friend. Hafez! In grief for Him, continue to consume; remediless, be content. On that account, that no remedy hath the restless pain of the Friend.

Not so strange is it if to Thy street came I, since in this country many a stranger is. In love, the cloister and the tavern are not different: Wherever, they are, the ray of the true Beloved’s face is. There, where they give splendor to the work of the cloister, The bell of the Christian monk’s cloister associated with the name of the cross is. Lover, who became, at whose state the true Beloved gazed not? O Sir! there is no pain. Otherwise, the Physician is. In short, all this lament of Hafez is not in vain: Both a strange story and a wonderful tale, it is.

Through amazement, Reason consumed, saying: “What Father of Wonders this is!” In this parterre, none plucked the rose without the thorn. So the lamp of Mustafa with the flames of Abu Lahab is. The reason, ask not why the cherisher of the mean, became the sphere, Whose design of giving, pretence without reason is. For half a barley-corn, I purchase not the arch of the monastery and of the inn: Because for me, the tavern is the palace; and the foot of the jar, the pavilion is. The beauty of the Daughter of the grape is the light of our eye. Perchance, In the veil of glass, and in the screen of the grape, it is.

The meaning of the Water-of-Life and the garden of Iram Save the bank of the rivulet and the wine pleasant-tasting is what? The austere one and the intoxicated one both are of one family: To whose glance, shall we give our heart? choice is what? The secret within the screen, what knoweth the silent sky? O pretender! thy contention with the screen-holder is what? If the esteeming rightly the forgetfulness and the negligence of the slave be not His, The meaning of the Omnipotent’s pardon and mercy is what? The Zahed desired the wine of Kousar; and Hafez, the cup: Let us see between these two, the choice of the Omnipotent is what?

(66) O nightingale! bewail if, the desire of being a lover with me, thine is. For, we two are, weeping lovers; and our work, weeping is. In that land where bloweth the fragrant breeze from the Beloved’s tress, For boasting of the musk-pods of Tatar, what room is. Bring the wine, wherewith we may becolour the garment of hypocrisy; For, we are intoxicated with the cup of pride; and the name of sensibleness is. To devise the fancy for Thy tress, is not the work of immature ones: To go beneath the chain, the way of a bold one is. Wherefrom love ariseth, is a hidden subtlety, Whose name neither the ruby lip, nor the auburn hair is. The person’s beauty is not the eye, nor the tress, nor the cheek, nor the mole; In this matter many a thousand subtlety, heart-possessing is. For half a barleycorn Kalandars of the Path purchase not, The satin coat of that one who void of skill is. To Thy threshold, one can reach only with difficulty. Yes: With difficulty, the ascent to the sky of joyousness is. In the morning, in a dream, I beheld the glance of union with Him: Oh excellent! when the stage of sleeping better than the waking is. Hafez! vex not His heart with weeping, and conclude: For, in little injuring, everlasting safety is.

Ask ye, saying: “She, the beloved, of whom is?” Now, the up-setter of my heart and of my religion, she is: Let us see: she the fellow-sleeper of whom is; the fellow-lodger of whom is: The ruby-wine of her lip, from my lip, far be it not! The wine of the soul of whom is? The cup-giver of the cup of whom is? The Fortune of the society of that candle of happy ray, ‘ Again, for God’s sake, ask ye saying: “For the moth of whom is?” For her, every one deviseth a great spell. Yet known it is not, Her tender heart, inclined to the tale of whom is? O Lord! that one, king-like, moon of face, Venus of forehead, The inestimable pearl of whom; and, the incomparable jewel of whom is? I said “Without thee, sigh from the distraught heart of Hafez:” Under the lip, laughing, she spake, saying: He distraught of whom is?”

From the grace of her cheek, in her cheek, the pupil of my eye Beheld its own reflection; and imagined that a musky mole it is. Milk yet droppeth from her lip like sugar, Although, in glancing, her every eyelash a slaughterer is. O thou that art in the city the pointing-stock for generosity, Alas! in the work of strangers, wonderful thy negligence is. After this, no doubt is mine in respect of the incomparable jewel; For, on that point, thy mouth a sweet proof is. Glad tidings, they gave that thou wilt pass by us Change not thy good resolve; for a happy omen it is.

(76) Save Thy threshold, my shelter in the world is none. Save this door, my fortress-place is none. When the enemy draweth the sword, we cast the shield: For save weeping and wailing, our sword is none: From the tavern-street, why turn I away my face? For better than this, in the world, my way and path is none. If, into the harvest of my life, Time cast fire, Say: “Consume; for, equal to a little blade of grass, in my opinion, it is none.” I am the slave of the saucy eye of that straight stature, From whose wine of pride, at any one, glance is none. Be not in the pursuit of injury: do whatever thou desirest: For in our Shariat, save this, a sin is none. O King of the dominion of beauty! go rein drawn: For at the head of a street, is it not a justice-seeker is none? Thus it is, that, in every direction, I behold the snare of the Path: Save the shelter of His tress, my shelter is none. To the tress and the mole give not the treasure of the heart of Hafez; For deeds like these, the power of every black one is none.

(77) A nightingale had a rose-leaf, pleasant of hue in his beak, And, on that leaf and pleasant food, bitter lamentation held. To him, I said: “In the very time of union wherefore is this lament and cry?” He said: “In this work of lament, me the beloved’s beauty held.” If the true Beloved sate not with us beggars, room for complaint is none; King, prosperous was He; shame of beggars, He held. Our supplication and entreaty affect not the Friend possessed of beauty, Happy he, who from beloved ones, the fortune of prosperity held. Arise! so that on the reed of that Painter, we may scatter our soul; For, all this wonderful picture, in the revolution of His compass, Lie held. If thou be a disciple of love’s Path, defame not: Pawned at the vintner’s house, his religious garment Shaikh San’an held. Happy, the time of that gentle Kalandar who, in the paths of wandering, Mention of the rosary of the King, in the girdle of the Zunnar, held. Below the roof of the palace of that beloved of Hun-nature, the eye of Hafez The way of paradise, beneath which streams are flowing, held.

Although my heart, like the pigeon, He cast down and slew; and respect for the prey of the sacred enclosure had not. Against me, on account of my fortune, came this violence.

For such a cup Jamshid had not.” Every way-farer who took not the path to the sacred enclosure of His door, Unhappy, traveled the valley; yet, the path to the sacred enclosure had not.

For his pavilion is the Cloud’s shade; and his banquet place, the field’s border. The sward uttereth the tale of the April: No Aref is he, who purchased a loan; and let go cash. With wine make the building of the heart. For this evil world Is bent on that it may make a brick of our dust. From the enemy, seek not fidelity. For, a feeble ray it giveth not, When thou kindlest the candle of the cloister from the lamp of the church. For recorded blackness, reproach not me intoxicated: Who knoweth what Fate hath written on his head? From the bier of Hafez, keep not back thy foot: For though he be immersed in sin, he goeth to paradise.

Go thou: be thyself: In the end, every one reapeth that work that he sowed. Every one, whether sensible or insensible, is the seeker of the Beloved: Every place, whether the Masjed or the church, is the house of love.

Of the former kindness in eternity without beginning, make me not hopeless: What knowest thou, behind the screen who is good, who is bad? From the cell of piety, not only I fell out: My father also let go from his hand Paradise of Eternity without end. O Hafez! If, on the day of death, thou bring a cup. Immediately, they will take thee from the street of the tavern to Paradise.

To eternity without end, the perfume of love reacheth not the perfume place of him Who, with his face, swept not the dust of the door of the tavern. Last night, in the Paradise, when from the bounty of the air, The tress of the hyacinth was disturbed by the morning breeze, I said: “O throne of Jamshid! thy cup world-displaying, where?” It said: “Alas! wakeful fortune slept.” Not that which cometh to the tongue is the talk of love: O Saki! give wine; make short this uttering and hearing. Into the sea, the tear of Hafez hath cast wisdom and patience: What shall he do? The consuming of love’s grief, he cannot conceal.

Since from my sight, went that world-seeing eye, None knoweth what tears from my eye have passed. Last night from the passing of the heart s fire to the candle passed not That smoke that, to our head, from the liver’s consuming passed. Far from His face, momently, from the fountain of my eye, A torrent of tears came; and the deluge of calamity passed. From our feet, we fell when separation’s grief came: In grief we remained when from the hand, the remedy passed. The heart said: “With prayer, one can again obtain union with Him.” ‘Tis a life-time since my life all in the work of prayer passed. Wherefore do I bind on the pilgrim-robe, for that Ka’ba is not here? In effort, wherefore do I strive since from Ka’ba, he hath passed? Yesterday, with the essence of the pity, when he beheld me, the physician said: “Alas! beyond the rules of cure, thy grief hath passed.” O friend! for asking Hafez plant thy foot Before that time when they shall speak saying,: “From the frail house he hath passed.”

Come; let us repeat the omitted prayers Of a long life that without the presence of a goglet and of the cup hath passed Make me intoxicated even so that from selflessness I shall not know, In the plain of imagination, who hath come, who hath passed. In the smell that a draught of Thy cup may reach us, In the inn, every morning and evening, prayer to Thee hath passed. To the heart that was dead, a great life reached the soul, Since into its perfume-place a perfume, from Thy breeze, hath passed. The Zahed had pride; took not the path to safety: By the path of supplication, the Profligate to the House of Safety hath passed. The cash of the heart that was mine became expended in wine: It was counterfeit coin. Therefore into the unlawful it hath passed. Like aloe-wood, how long can one consume in the torment of repentance? Give wine. For life in the essence of raw madness hath passed. Again counsel not Hafez; for the path of austerity, found not, A lost one, to whose palate the sweet wine hath passed.

That candle head uplifted again enkindled its face, And youth from his head, this Pir years endured took. The true Beloved gave that glance, such that piety departed from the path, And the Friend exercised that kindness, that the enemy caution took. From the sweet and heart-ravishing example, shelter: Thou mayst say “Thy mouth speech into sugar took.” The load of that great grief that had wounded our heart, God sent one of Isa-breath: up, he took. Every cypress-stature, that boasted beauty over the sun and the moon, When Thou camest, the pursuit of other work took. Full of clamour of this tale, are the seven vaults of the sky. Behold the short-sighted one who, the tale short, took! Hafez! from whom hast thou learned this prayer, that the beloved Made thy verse an amulet; and it, into gold, took.

(87) By concord with darkish beauty, the world Thy beauty took. Yes; by concord, the world one can take. The revealing of the mysteries of the Khilvatis, the candle wished to make: Thanks to God! that its tongue, the heart’s desire kindled. From out of this concealed fire that is in my chest, A flame is the sun that the sky, kindled. The rose wished to boast of the color and the perfume of the Friend: In jealousy of it, its breath, in its mouth the breeze took. Rested apart, I was like the compass: At last, me, into the center, like a point, Time took. Desire of the cup of wine consumed my harvest that day, When, from the reflection of the Saki’s cheek, fire kindled. e To the street of the magians, I wish to go, shaking my sleeve, Of these calamities, that, the skirt of time’s end took. Drink wine. For, whoever, at the end of work, beheld the world, From grief, came forth light; and, the heavy cup of wine, took. With the blood of tulips, on the rose-leaf, they have written Saying: “Wine like the ruddy Arghavan that one, who became mature, took.” Hafez! like water, grace trickleth from thy verse: On it, nice distinction, the envious one how took?

(88) I heard a pleasant speech that the old man of Kan’an uttered: “Separation from the true Beloved maketh not that which can be uttered.” The tale of terror of the resurrection day, which the city-admonisher uttered? Is a hint, which, of the time of separation, he uttered. Of whom, may I ask the trace of the Beloved, many a journey made? For whatever the wind’s messenger uttered, confusedly he uttered. Alas! that unkind moon, the Friend’s enemy, For the abandoning the society of his own lovers, how easily he uttered! After this I and the stage of contentment, and thanks to my rival: For accustomed to pain by thee, my heart hath become; and the abandonment of remedy uttered With wine of many years, repel ye the old grief: For, the seed of happy-heartedness is this. It, the Pir of the village uttered. Fix not a knot on the wind though, on thy object, it favorably blow, For to Soleiman this speech, as a proverb, the wind, uttered. For a frivolous excuse that the sky may give thee, go not from the Path Who told thee, that, the abandoning of tales, this old woman uttered. As to “how and why,” express no breath. For the happy slave Accepteth with soul every word that the Sultan uttered. From thought of thee, who said Hafez hath come back’? This, I have not said. He who uttered it, calumny uttered.

(89) O Lord! devise a means, whereby in safety my Beloved May come back, and release me from the claw of reproach. Bring ye the dust of the Path of that traveled Beloved That I may make my world-seeing eye His sojourn-place. Justice! For, they have barred my Path on six sides That mole, beard, tress, face, cheek, and stature. To-day, when I am in thy hand, show a little mercy. To-morrow, when I become clay, what profit are tears of repentance? O thou that of love expressest breath in relating and explaining, With thee no word have we save this “Prosperity and safety be thine!” Darvish! Lament not of the sword of friends; For this band taketh the blood-price for the slain. Set fire to the religious garment; for the curve of the Saki’s eye-brow Shattereth the corner of the prayer-arch of the service of the Imam. God forbid that of thy violence and tyranny I should bewail: The injustice of dainty ones is all daintiness and goodness. The argument of thy tress-tip, Hafez shorteneth not: This chain is joined to the day of resurrection.

In love’s Path, is no stage of nearness or of farness: I clearly see Thee; and prayer, I send Thee. Every morning and evening, the Kafila of prayer for Thy welfare, In company with the north and the east wind, I send Thee. So long as grief’s army ruineth not the heart’s country, Words and odes, with melody and modulation, I send thee. O Fellow-sitter of my heart! Thou that becomest hidden from sight, Prayer, I utter for Thee; praise, I send Thee. The creation of God, behold in thy own face; For the mirror, God-displaying, I send thee. Saki! come; for the invisible messenger uttered to me glad tidings, “In pain, exercise patience; for the remedy of union, I send Thee.” Hafez! the song of our assembly is the mention of thy welfare: Make haste. A horse and a coat, I send Thee.

Display the prayer-arch of thy eye-brow, that, in the morning-time, I may bring forth my hand of prayer and bring it upon the neck of thee. If it be necessary for me to go to Harut of Babil, A hundred kinds of sorcery I will evoke to bring thee. O faithless physician! I wish to die before thee.

To me, salutation thou hast written with the nib of the pen: Be not the work of Time’s house without the writing of thee! I say not in mistake, thou recollectedest me, heart bereft: For, in wisdom’s account, mistake lieth not in the pen of thee. Despicable, make me not in thanks for this favor That lasting Fortune, dear and honored, held thee. Come. For, by thy tress-tip, I will vow ‘That if my head goeth, I will not uplift it from the feet of thee. Of the state of us, thy heart may become acquainted; but at the time, When the tulip blossometh from the dust of those slain of grief for thee. With a draught, assist the soul of us thirsty When, from the cup, the limpid water of Khizr they give thee. O Isa-breeze! happy ever be all thy time For alive became the heart-broken soul of Hafez by the breath of Thee.

Rewardless was and thankless every service that I rendered: O Lord! void of kindness let none be the served one. To profligates, thirsty of lip, none giveth a little water: Thou mayest say: “Those recognizing holy men have departed from this land.” O heart! In His tress-like noose, twist not; For, there, Thou seest severed heads, crimeless, guiltless. With a glance, Thy eye drank our blood; and Thou approvest: O Soul! lawful is not protection to the blood-shedder. In this dark night, lost to me became the path of my purpose: O Star of guidance! come forth from the corner. From every direction, where I went naught increased to me save terror. Beware of this desert, and of this endless Path. Of this Path, the end openeth no form For, in its beginning, are a hundred thousand stages more. Although, thou snatchedest my honor, I turn not my face from Thy door: More pleasant is violence from the Beloved, than from the enemy, courtesy. To thy complaint, love reacheth, if like Hafez Thou recite the Kuran with the fourteen traditions.

(99) My heart, in desire of the face of Farrukh, Is in confusion like the hair of Farrukh. Save the Hindu of his tress, is none, That enjoyed prosperity from the face of Farrukh. The. black of good fortune is that which ever Is the fellow-traveller and the fellow knee-sitter of Farrukh. Like the trembling aspen, becometh the cypress of the garden, If it see the heart-alluring stature of Farrukh. O Saki! give wine of Arghavan hue To the memory of the eye of sorcery of Farrukh. Bent like a bow, became my stature From grief continuous as the eyebrow of Farrukh. The breeze of the musk of Tatar, ashamed made The perfume of the tress of ambergris of Farrukh. If to a place, be the inclination of any one’s heart, The inclination of my heart is towards of Farrukh. I am the slave of resolution of that one who is Like Hafez, the attendant of the black of Farrukh.

(100) Yesterday, the Pir, the wine-seller whose mention be for good! Said: “Drink wine; and, from recollection, take the heart’s grief.” I said: “To the wind, wine giveth my name and fame:” He said: “Accept the word: be whatever be.” Since, from thy hand, will go profit and loss and capital, Say: “For this matter, neither noyous nor joyous be!” In thy hand is only wind, if thou place thy heart on any thing: In a meeting-place where to the wind, Soleiman’s throne goeth. Hafez! if thine be vexation on account of the counsel of the sages, Let us make short the tale, saying: “Long life be thine!”
