Her face is a gathering of beauty and grace, like the moon, Ghazal 289 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
Her face is a gathering of beauty and grace, like the moon,
But alas, she has no love or loyalty, O God, give it to her.
My beloved is a witness and a child, and she plays with me daily,
She kills me, yet there is no sin in the eyes of religion.
It is better for me to guard my heart from her,
For she has seen neither good nor evil, and has no regard.
The scent of milk comes from her lips like sugar,
Although blood drips from the manner of her black eyes.
I have a fourteen-year-old, agile, sweet idol,
Whose fourteenth night is a ring around my heart.
O my God, where has that newborn flower of our hearts gone?
Why haven’t we seen her in all these days?
If my beloved’s heart breaks mine like this,
May the king take her to himself in his royal domain.
I will gladly sacrifice my life for that pearl of a grain,
If the oyster of Hafez's heart can be its resting place.
