Check out the latest ghazal from hamed:
Don’t ask me of the love-sickness I’ve endured, Ghazal 270 by Hafez

Description: English Translation:

Don’t ask me of the love-sickness I’ve endured,
Or the poison of separation I’ve tasted.

I’ve searched the world and in the end,
I’ve chosen a beloved, don’t ask me why.

My tears flow like water towards the dust of their door,
Don’t ask how much.

I heard words from their own lips last night,
Don’t ask what they were.

Why do you bite your lip and say, “Don’t say it”?
I’ve tasted a ruby lip, don’t ask me how.

Without you, in my beggar’s hut,
I’ve endured pains, don’t ask me how much.

Like a lonely Hafez on the path of love,
I’ve reached a station, don’t ask me where.
