Without the beloved's face , t...
The ghazal
Without the beloved's face , the rose is not pleasant ,
Without wine , spring is not pleasant . *** The border of the sward and the air of the garden
Without the beloved of tulip cheek is not pleasant . *** With the beloved , sugar of lip , rose of body ,
To be without kiss and embrace is not pleasant . *** The dancing of the cypress , and the rapture of the rose ,
Without the song of the hazar is not pleasant . *** Every picture that reason's hand depicteth ,
Save the picture of the living beauteous idol is not pleasant . *** The garden and the rose and wine , all is pleasant but ,
Without the beloved's society , is not pleasant . *** Hafiz the soul is but a despicable coin
For scattering on the true Beloved it is not pleasant . ***
