I am the one who has once again set my eyes on the sight of my beloved, Ghazal 259 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
I am the one who has once again set my eyes on the sight of my beloved,
What thanks can I offer you, O Helper of your humble servant?
O you who are in need of trials, do not turn your face from the dust,
For the dust of the seeker’s path is the alchemy of desire.
Do not turn away from the difficulties of the spiritual path, O heart,
For a man of the path does not think about ups and downs.
If the lover does not purify himself with the blood of his liver,
His prayers are not right according to the verdict of love's mullah.
In this illusory realm, take nothing but the cup,
In this playhouse, seek nothing but love.
Buy a prayer with a half-kiss from a sincere heart,
For the malice of your enemy is returning from your soul and body.
Let the murmur of love be spread in the Hijaz and Iraq,
The melody of the verses of Hafez from Shiraz.
