The slave of thy intoxicated eye , crown - possessors are

Undone with the wine of Thy ruby lip , sensible ones are . *** O true Beloved like the wind , pass over the violet - bed . Behold ,

From the tyranny of thy tress , how sorrowful they are *** O true Beloved for Thee , the wind bearing news to men , and far and near thy perfume and for me the water tear of the eye declaring me to be a lover became informers :

If not , mystery - keepers of each other the lover and the Beloved are . *** To that rose cheek of Thine not alone do I sing the love song

For , on every side , Thy nightingales lovers a thousand are . *** When Thou passest supon the Path glance

Beneath Thy two tresses , from right and left , how restless they are . *** O God - recogniser Our portion is paradise . Go

For deserving of mercy ,- sinners are . *** To the wine - house , go and with wine make ruddy thy face

To the cloister , go not for there , dark of deed , they are . *** O watcher pass and more than after this , display no haughtiness .

At the Friend's door , dusty not haughty the dwellers are . *** O Khizr of auspicious foot the Murshid perfect and excellent bethou my hand seizer . For I

Travel on foot and my fellow - travellers . Arifs on horse - back are . *** O true Beloved free of that twist - possessing tress , Hafiz be not :

For , free from evilness , from grief , and from attachment to any one those bound to Thy girdle are . *** From the picture expression of Hafiz's face , one can know

That at the Friend's door , dusty humble the dwellers are . ***
