Check out the latest ghazal from hamed:
I speak openly, and I am glad of what I say, Ghazal 317 by Hafez

Description: English Translation:

I speak openly, and I am glad of what I say
I am a slave to love, and free from both worlds.

O bird of the celestial garden, how can I describe the pain of separation?
For I have fallen into this ruined world of accidents.

I was an angel and Paradise was my place
Adam brought me to this ruined abode.

The shade of the Tuba tree, the comfort of the houris and the pool’s lip
I forgot in the hope of your street.

There is nothing on the tablet of my heart but the aleph of my beloved's stature
What can I do? My teacher did not teach me any other letter.

No astrologer recognized the star of my fate
O Lord, from what mother in the world was I born?

Until I became a ring in the ear of the door of the winehouse of love
Every moment a new sorrow comes to congratulate me.

The pupil of my eye drinks my heart's blood, it is deserved
For why did I give my heart to a piece of my liver?

Wash Hafez's face with the tears of your locks
Or else this flood of my sigh will destroy my foundation.
