Come for plunder of the tray of fasting , the Turk of the sky Mars hath made

Hint at the circulation of the cup , the new crescent moon hath made . *** The reward of fasting and the pilgrimage of acceptance , took that one

Who , to the dust of the wine - house of love , pilgrimage made . *** Our true dwelling is the corner of the tavern

God give good to him , who this edifice made . *** O happy the prayer and the supplication of that one , who , from head - pain ,

Ablution , with water of the eye and blood of the liver , made . *** Gaze at the face of the true Beloved keep obligation on account of thy eye

For this work all , with the purpose of vision , the eye , made . *** What is the price of wine of love like the ruby It is the jewel of reason

Come for profit took that one who , this barter made . *** Alas today , the bold eye of the city Shaikh ,

At the dreg - drinkers , glance with utter contempt , made . *** In the curve of those eye - brows of prayer arch fashion , prayer

That one maketh , who , in blood - water , pure his heart made . *** If , today , the Imam of the assembly search .

Give ye news that , with wine , the Sufi cleansing made . *** Hear love's tale from Hafiz not from the admonisher against love

Although , in example , much art he made . ***
