If the dust of my beloved's feet should touch my hand, Ghazal 325 by Hafez

Description: English Translation:

If the dust of my beloved's feet should touch my hand
I will write a line of dust on the tablet of my sight.

I am drowning in the scent of your shore, and I hope
That a wave of my tears will carry me to your shore.

If I reach the moth's desire for life
Like a candle, I will surrender my life moment by moment.

Do not turn away from my loyalty today and think
Of that night when I raised my hands in supplication out of sorrow.

Your dark locks, in comforting lovers
Made a promise and then broke my heart.

O wind, bring me a breeze of that wine
For that healing scent will dispel my hangover.

If my beloved does not betray my heart
I will consider my life a ransom in his moment.

Do not cast me, a lowly one, aside, for after me
No wind can carry my dust from this door.

Hafez considers her ruby lip his precious life
That moment when I bring my life to my lips will be a lifetime.
