In the tavern of the Ma gi, my beloved arrived, cup in hand: Ghazal 27 by Hafez
Description: English Translation
In the tavern of the Magi, my beloved arrived, cup in hand,
Drunk from wine, and the drunkards are intoxicated by his intoxicating narcissus.
In the horseshoe of his steed, the shape of the new moon is visible,
And the cypress tree is short compared to his tall stature.
How can I say that I know myself when I don't?
And for what reason should I say that I don’t look at him when I do?
The candle of my heart, my companion, went out when he arose,
And the sighs of the lovelorn arose when he sat down.
If musk became fragrant, it twisted in his hair,
And if kohl became a bow, it joined his eyebrow.
Come back, for Hafez's passing life may return,
Although the arrow that has left the finger may not return.
