The ghazal

If , to limit of his capacity the Sufi the ^outward worshipper drink wine of love to him , sweet may it be

If not , the thought of this work of love of his , forgotten be *** That one who can give up a single draft of wine of sensual pleasure

With the Beloved of his desire his hand in his bosom , be , *** Who is that horseman , happy and joyful Both worlds ,

Bound to the fastening of his coat , and to the standard of his shoulder , be . *** Said our Pir On the Creator's pen , passed no error :

On his the Pir's pure sight , error - covering , afrin be *** The King of the Turkans heard the speech of the adversaries

Of the oppression of Siyawash , his a great shame be *** Of the number of mirror - holders of his the beloved's line of down and mole my eye became

Of the number of the kiss - snatchers of his the beloved's bosom and back , my lip be *** Although , through pride , he uttered no word to me , the poor darvish

A ransom for His sweet , silent , pistachio nut mouth my life be *** The intoxicated narcissus , 'the beloved's eye favour - doer , man - preserver

If it the narcissus drink lover's blood in a goblet , to it sweet may it be *** Hafiz in thy service , the world became famous

In its ear , the ring of service of thy tress , be ***
