The ghazal
That friend , by whom our house the happy dwelling of the Pari was ,
Head to foot , free from defect , a Pari was . *** Acceptable to the All Wise of mine is that moon . For , his ,
With beauty of manner , the way of one endowed with vision was . *** My heart said In hope of her in this city , I will sojourn
Helpless , it knew not that its friend , a traveller was . *** Out from my grasp , the malignant star plucked her
Yes . What can I do The calamity of the revolution of the moon it was *** Not only from my heart's mystery , fell the screen
Since the sky time was , screen - rending its habit was . *** Sweet was the marge of the water , and the rose and the verdure . But ,
Alas that moving treasure , a way - farer was . *** Happy were those times which passed with the friend
All without result and without knowledge , the rest was . *** The bulbul the true lover slew himself through jealousy of this that , to the rose the true Beloved
At morning - time the last breath of life with the morning - breeze the angel of death splendour of heavenly messages was . *** O heart establish an excuse . For thou art a beggar and here ,
In the kingdom of beauty , the head of a crowned one was *** Every treasure of happiness that God gave to Hafiz ,
From the auspiciousness of the evening - prayer , and of the morning - supplication , was . ***
