The ghazal

O pious of the heart, I am lost in a love, so great

O pain the hidden secrets will become open debate.

Shipwrecked we just float, O favorable wind arise,

May we one more time gaze upon that familiar trait.

Passage of time and the stars, are but what we fantasize

For compassion and kindness, it is never too late.

In the circle of wine and roses, nightingale’s song is prize

With the aroma and the wine your senses satiate.

O Thou compassionate one, life giver and the wise

One day bestow thy grace upon this mendicant’s state.

For peace of this world and the next, understand what I advise

Magnanimity the lot of friends, and with foes try to relate.
