The ghazal

Torment of envy to the violet , giveth the musk - exhaling tress - ^ of thine ;

The fold of the rose - bud , rendeth the heart - alluring laughter of thine . *** O my rose , sweet of perfume the beloved thy bulbul thy lover , in separation consume not ;

For , night , all night , with the essence of sincerity , it makfth prayer for the welfare of thine . *** Love's fortune behold , how , for the desire of pomp and glory ,

The corner of the crown of sovereignty aslant placeth , the beggar of Thine . *** Say the enemy and the friend say every ill - intention that is possible ,

The violence of all the people of the world , I endure for the sake of Thee . *** I who , with the breathing murmuring of angels used to be vexed so delicate was my nature

Now the disputation of a whole world high and low I endure for the sake of Thee . *** Love for Thee is my destiny ; the dust of Thy door , my paradise

Love for Thy cheek is my nature my pleasure the will of Thine . *** Though not fitted matched together are the khirka of austerity , and the cup of wine ,

All this picture , I paint trick I play for the sake of the will of Thine . *** The ragged garment of the beggar of love hath treasure in the sleeve

To sovereignty , quickly reacheth whoever was the beggar of Thine . *** My eye's king - seat is the resting - place of Thy image

A place of prayer it is . O my sovereign , without thee , be not the place of Thine *** Goeth from my head , wine's clamouring and love's consuming at that moment ,

When this head full of passion becometh the dust of the door of the abode of Thine . *** A pleasant sward is Thy cheek , especially when in the spring of beauty ,

Hafiz , sweet of speech , became the bird , song - singing , ' of Thine , ***
