O breeze murshid thy passing by the dwelling of the true Beloved , keep not back

For the wretched lover Hafiz news of Him the true Beloved keep not back . *** O rose in thanks that , to thy heart's desire , thou blossomedest ,

From the bird of the morning the bulbul the breeze of union keep not back . *** O true Beloved on one glance of Thine , is dependent all our desire

From old friends , this much keep not back . *** Now , that the fountain of sugar the water of life is Thy sweet ruby lip

Utter speech and from the parrot Hafiz sugar the true Beloved keep not back . *** When thou wast the new moon in the beginning of youthful beauty I was thy companion

Now , that in beauty thou art the full moon , from the state of me foolish the glance of mercy keep not back , *** Mean small and contracted is the world and all that in it is

O true Beloved from the people of divine knowledge , this contracted portion keep not back . *** To the far horizon , taketh the poet thy deeds noble and generous

From him , allowance and provision for the journey keep not back . *** O praised One since thou desirest good mention of thy self this the matter :

In respect of the price of speech good mention silver and gold keep not back . *** Hafiz grief's dust departeth better cometh thy state

From this thoroughfare , the water of thy eye tears keep not back . ***
