New Ghazal Posted: We have tested our fortune in this city, Ghazal 291 by Hafez

Description: English Translation:

We have tested our fortune in this city,
We must pull our garments out of this whirlpool.

From biting my lips and sighing so much,
I've set myself on fire, piece by piece, like a flower.

Last night, a nightingale sang so sweetly,
With its ears wide open, from its branch.

O heart, be happy, for that quick-tempered beloved,
Will soon sit down from her own bad luck.

If you want the world to pass over you easily,
Pass over your weak promises and harsh words.

It is time that I set fire to all my clothes and belongings,
From the separation from you and the burning within.

O Hafez, if your wish is fulfilled, always,
Even Jamshid did not remain on his throne forever.
