Though a knot has formed in my affairs from her locks, Ghazal 324 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
Though a knot has formed in my affairs from her locks
I still keep my eyes wide open out of kindness toward her.
Don’t be amused by the redness of my face, for like a cup
The blood of my heart reflects outward from my visage.
The curtain of my minstrel will be torn from my hand
Alas, if there is no burden in this curtain for me.
I have become the night watchman of the heart’s sanctuary
So that I may allow no thought other than her in this curtain.
I am that magical poet who with the enchantment of speech
From the reed of my pen, showers sweetness and sugar.
The eye of fortune has fallen asleep in a dream of her
Where is a breeze of favor to awaken me?
Since I cannot see you passing by, O beloved
To whom shall I say to tell my beloved a word?
Yesterday they said that Hafez is all show and pretense
Except for the dust of her threshold, with whom do I have a market?
