In need of the physician's car...

In need of the physician's care , thy body be not

Vexed by injury , thy tender existence be not *** The safety of all horizons the whole world is in thy safety .

By any accident , sorrowful thy person be not *** O perfect murshid the beauty of the outward and of the inward is from the prosperity of thy well - being

Outwardly anguished , inwardly afflicted , thou be not *** In this sward , when autumn entereth upon plundering ,

To the straight cypress of lofty stature , its path be not *** In that place where thy beauty beginneth splendour ,

The power of reproach of the ill - seer and of the ill - approver be not *** Every one , who , with the evil eye , beholdeth thy moon - like face ,

Save rue - casting on the fire of grief for thee his life be pot . *** From the sugar - scattering utterance , of Hafiz seek recovery ,

So that need of the remedy of rose - water and of candy , thine be not . ***
