Rise up and pour the wine of joy into the golden goblet, Ghazal 264 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
Rise up and pour the wine of joy into the golden goblet,
Before the goblet of our heads is turned to dust.
Ultimately, our destination is the valley of the silent,
For now, create a tumult in the celestial dome.
The impure eye is far from the beloved's face,
Cast your gaze upon their face from the mirror of purity.
O cypress with your green head, if I should turn to dust,
Put on airs and cast your shadow on this earth.
My heart, which has been stung by the serpent of your locks,
Cast into the healing potion from your lips.
Know that the kingdom of this world offers no permanence,
Set a fire from the heart of the wine cup in these possessions.
They say I am lazy in the spiritual path because I bathe in tears,
First purify yourself and then cast your gaze upon that purity.
O Lord, cast the smoke of my sigh into the mirror of perception
Of that self-conceited ascetic who sees only faults.
Like a flower, take the scent of him, O Hafez,
And cast this robe upon the path of that graceful figure.
