In every path of Islam , the image of Thy face fellow - traveller of ours is .

Ever , the perfume of Thy hair , the soul - informer of ours is . *** In grief of those claimants , who forbid love ,

The beauty of Thy face , the approved argument of ours is . *** Behold , what saith the apple of Thy chin

Many a Yusuf of Egypt fallen into the pit , of our is . *** If to our hand reach not Thy long tress ,

The sin of the perturbed fortune , and of the short hand of ours is . *** To the chamberlain Iblis full of fraud of the door of the private chamber , say :

Of those corner - sitting , a certain one though through grief yellow of face like straw the dust of the court of Ours is . *** Although , apparently , He is veiled from our sight ,

He , ever , in the sight of the tranquil heart , of ours is . *** O Iblis If , as a beggar , Hafiz knock at that door whereof thou art chamberlain open

For , it is years since he , desirous of the moon - like face of Ours was . ***
