Poem Number 425
The skirt - trailer damsel kep...
The ghazal
The skirt - trailer damsel kept moving in cloth , gold - embroidered ,
In envy of her , a hundred moon - of - face , the collar of hempen cloth rent *** From the heat of the fire of wine , round about her cheek , sweat ,
Like drops of night - dew on the rose - leaf dropped . *** A pronunciation , eloquent and sweet a stature , tall and beautiful
A face , gracious and heart - alluring ; the eye in a bow sweetly drawn . *** Her soul refreshing ruby lip of the water of grace born
The boxtree stature sweetly moving , in daintiness cherished . *** That heart - alluring ruby lip of hers , behold and that laughter full of ripple
That sweet moving of hers , behold and that gait reposed . *** Forth from our snare , that mistress , dark of eye , hath gone
Friends what remedy may I make with this heart affrighted *** Take care so far as thou canst , injure not people of vision
No fidelity , hath the world . O light of both eyes *** On account of that heart - fascinating eye , reproach how long shall I endure
One day , glance , O friend well chosen *** On account of the Khwaja's service , many the thanks that I shall utter ,
If to my hand fall that fruit matured . *** Every evil that , in respect of us , the enemy uttered thou heardest
O Lord the adversary's tongue be severed *** If , on account of Hafiz thy noble heart be grieved ,
Come back . For , repentance , we have made of that uttered and heard . ***
