Arrived the glad tidings that ...

Arrived the glad tidings that grief's time shall not remain

Like that joy's time remained not ; like this grief's time shall not remain . *** Although by the ill - speaking of the watcher I am , in the Beloved's sight , become dusty and despicable

Yet honoured like this , the watcher shall not remain . *** Since the veil - holder door - keeper striketh all with the sword ,

Dweller of the sacred harlm , a person shall not remain . *** O candle reckon union with the moth a great gain

For even till dawn , this commerce shall not remain . *** Pleasant glad tidings , Surosh Jibra , il of the unseen world gave me

In the world , ever sorrowful , a person shall not remain . *** Of regarding the picture , good or bad , is what room for thanks or for lament

When , on the page of existence , the writing of the decree shall not remain *** The song of Jamshid's assembly , they have said , was this

Bring the cup of wine for Jam Jamshid shall not remain . *** O powerful one bring to thy hand and help the darvish's heart

For the treasure of gold , and the treasure of dirham shall not remain . *** In gold , on this mansion of chrysolite , they have written

Save the goodness of people of liberality , aught shall not remain . *** In the morning , pleasant glad tidings , the consent to union with Him gave

Ever captive to grief , a person s h a ll not remain . *** Hafiz sever not desire for the true Beloved's favour

For the picture of violence and the mark of tyranny shall not remain . ***
