In the morning , the invisible speaker of the wine - house with fortune - wishing ,

Said O Hafiz come back for an old friend of this court thou art . *** Like Jamshld , a draught of wine , drink , so that , of the mystery of the angels ,

Thee , the ray of the cup , world - viewing , may give news . *** At the wine - house door , are Kalandar - profligates ,

Who take away and give the imperial diadem . *** Beneath the head , the brick and the foot on the summit of the seven stars Pleiades

Behold the hand of power and the dignity of one possessed of dignity *** Together are our head and the door of the wine - house , the side of the vault whereof

Is uplifted to the sky , though the wall be of this lowliness . *** O traveller of the Path to the beggars of the wine - house door ,

Courteous be if , acquainted with the mysteries of God , thou be . *** O heart if thee , the kingdom of poverty , they give ,

Thy least territory will be from the moon above to the fish beneath supporting the earth *** Without the road - fellowship of Khizr , this path travel not

'Tis the zulmat fear the danger of road - losing . *** The door of poverty , thou knowest not how to beat . From the hand , let not go ,

The seat of Lordship , and the royal assembly of TQran . *** O Sikandar patiently sit useless grief , suffer not

For , thee , the water of life , they give not even on account of sovereignty . *** Hafiz , crude of greed of this tale , have shame

What is thy work , reward for which two worlds thou desirest ***
