If fate lends a hand, I will grasp its skirt, Ghazal 296 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
If fate lends a hand, I will grasp its skirt
Whether it brings me joy or death, what glory!
My hopeful heart has not tied itself to anyone's kindness
Though my story is told everywhere.
From the bend of your eyebrow, I've found no relief
Alas, in this crooked thought, my precious life has been wasted.
When will my beloved's eyebrow become the target of my imagination?
No one has hit the target with an arrow from this bow.
How long will I nurture the love of these heartless idols?
These ungrateful sons do not remember their father.
I, in the guise of a pious man, sit in a corner, strangely enough
Playing the tambourine from every side.
The pious are unaware, read the inscription and don't say a word
The drunkard magistrate, give me wine and don't be afraid.
See the city's Sufi, how he eats a morsel of doubt
May his tail be long, that well-fed animal.
Hafez, if you step sincerely on the path of the family
The governor of Najaf will accompany you on your journey.
