The ghazal

Went heart and faith ; and the Heart - Ravisher God with reproach arose ,

And said Sit not with me for , from thee , safety hath risen . *** Of whom heardest thou , who , at this banquet of the world hath awhile sat happy

Who , at the end of the companionship , not in remorse hath risen . *** If , with its tongue wick the candle expressed a boast of that laughing face

In fine for that boast nights before thy lovers , it burning hath risen . *** In the sward , from the border of the rose and the cypress , the spring breeze ,

In longing for that cheek and stature of Thine , hath risen . *** Intoxicated , Thou passedest by , and from the Khilvatis of angels

The tumult of resurrection at the sight of Thee hath risen . *** Before thy graceful gait , from shame its foot uplifted not ,

The head - extending lofty cypress that , with grace of stature and of form , hath risen . *** Hafiz cast off this religious garment of hypocrisy Perchance thou mayst in safety take thy life

For , from the religious garment of hypocrisy and of miracle , fire wherein thou mayst be consumed hath risen . ***
