The ghazal

If lawful the need of profligates , the wine - seller maketh ,

His sin , God forgiveth and , repelling of calamity maketh . *** Saki give wine in the cup of justice , so that the beggar

Gather not jealousy such that , the world full of dalamity , he maketh . *** Minstrel thy lyre , play Without death , none died .

This melody , who chanteth not , mistake maketh . *** Sage if before thee come sorrow or ease ,

Ascribe not toother than God for these , God maketh . *** In the workshop , wherein is no path to reason and excellence ,

An arrogant judgment , why is it that weak imagination maketh *** O God the glad tidings of safety from these griefs the calamities of Shaitan's deceit may arrive ,

If , fidelity in the covenant of trust that , in eternity without beginning , he made with Thee the holy traveller maketh . *** Since love's pain is ours , and the calamity of wine - sickness ,

Its remedy either the ruby lip of the beloved , or the pure wine maketh . *** In the desire of wine , life passed and in love Hafiz consumed

Where is one of 'Isa - breath life - giving that our reviving maketh . ***
