Mine be recollection of that time , when my dwelling , the head of thy street was .

When from the dust of thy door , to my eye the acquisition of luminosity was . *** From the effects of pure society , upright I became like the lily and the rose

On my tongue was , whatever in thy heart was . *** When , from the Pir of wisdom , my heart made transcription of inquired about divine significations ,

In explanation , Love uttered what to him the Pir of wisdom difficult was . *** In my heart , it was I will never be without the Friend God

What can one do For my effort and the effort of my heart , vain was . *** Last night , in recollection of friends to see them I went to the tavern

The jar of wine , I beheld . In the heart , blood was and in the clay of astonishment the foot was . *** Much , I wandered to ask the cause of the pain of separation

In this matter , void of wisdom , the Mufti of wisdom was . *** The truth of the end of the Abu Ishak turquoise is this that

Well it gleamed but its the lot of the hastener was . *** Alas , this tyranny and oppression that is in this snare - place the world

Alas that grace and favour that in that assembly the world of souls was *** Hafiz thou sawest all that chatter of the strutting partridge Amir Abu Is'hak

Careless of the grasp of the falcon of Fate , he was . ***
