Poem Number 480
O thou who , in our slaughter ...
The ghazal
O thou who , in our slaughter , mercy exercisest not
Profit and capital , thou consumest manliness , thou showest not . *** Deadly poison , the sorrowful ones of calamity lovers , sorrowful through sepa - ration from thee drink
The design of slaying this tribe of lovers is dangerous . Take care that it , thou doest not . *** Since , with a corner of thy eye , our grief it is possible to take ,
The part of justice it is not , that our remedy for freedom from grief thou makest not . *** Since , in hope of thee , our eye is the ocean through weeping why is it that
On the ocean - shore , in recreation , passing thou makest not *** The tale of every violence that , of thy gentle nature , they made ,
Is the word of the interested and is therefore discredited Those deeds of violence thou doest not . *** O Zahid if our beloved display splendour to thee by visiting thee
From God , save wine and the beloved , a wish thou makest not . *** O Hafiz adoration of his eye - brow curved like the prayer - arch , make
For save here , a prayer from sincerity's source thou makest not . ***
