Poem Number 325
If I find the dust under Belov...
The ghazal
If I find the dust under Beloved's feet
Use as eye-liners, draw a line, neat & discreet.
In your scent I have drowned, yet I have hope
Waves of my tears shall float my fleet.
Butterfly of my soul, Beloved seeks
Once finds that candle, joyously burns by its heat.
Think of me today, turn not away
Else tonight in pain, my prayers I repeat.
Beauty of your hair consoles every lover
Yet with their calmness, my calm defeat.
O breeze, bring me a scent of that wine
One whiff, my drunken state will treat.
If my friend's deceptions don't break my heart
Her every breath my spirit will replete.
Don't try to shed my dust from your clothes
From now on, even the wind, it shall cheat.
Hafiz, her sweet lips are my soul's seat
I live for the moment when soul and lips meet.
