Maryam Foradi / Diwan Hafez / Divan Hafez (English Translation)
فارسی Transliterate
English
Last night the first day of Eternity without beginning from the masjid the place where the soul is separate from the body towards the wine tavern the stage of truth and love our Pir Muhammad came
O friends of the Path after this lapse of time , and this departure what is our plan *** How may we , disciples , turn to the Ka'ba the Masjid when
Our Pir Muhammad hath his face towards the house of the Vintner the stage of Truth and Love *** In the Fire - worshipper's Tavern the stage of Truth and Love we also shall be lodging
For , in the Covenant of eternity without beginning , even so was our destiny . *** In the bond of His the Beloved's tress , how happy is the Heart If Wisdom know ,
In pursuit of our tress - chain , the wise will become distraught . *** The prey of tranquillity had fallen into the snare of the bird of the heart
Thou loosedest thy tress and again went from the hand our prey . *** By its grace , Thy beautiful face explained to us a verse of the Kuran
For that reason , in our explanation , is naught save grace and beauty . *** A single night , against Thy stony heart , ever effecteth aught
Our sigh , fire - raining supplicating God and the burning of our heart in the night - time *** Upon Thy black tress , came the dishevelling wind the world from seeing that dishevelling became black to me
Than the passion for Thy tress , more than this is not our honouring that we fall into tumult *** Beyond the sphere passeth the arrow of our sigh . Hafiz silence .
Show compassion to thy soul avoid the arrow of ours . *** At the door of the wine - house , dweller I shall be like Hafiz ,
Since a tavern - haunter became that friend of the Path , the Pir of ours . ***
