That famous messenger who arrived from the Beloved's land: Ghazal 60 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
I have hope for a kind gesture from my Beloved,
For I have committed a crime, yet I hope for His forgiveness.
I know He will overlook my transgression, for though
He may seem aloof, He is in fact a merciful angel.
We wept so much that everyone who passed by
Said, seeing our tears streaming, "What is this?"
That mouth is nowhere to be seen, I find no trace of it,
There is a curl of hair, but I don’t know what that hair is.
I am amazed by the image of His imagination, how it does not leave
My sight, but constantly washes and scrubs.
Without a word, Your tresses draw my heart,
Who else would dare speak or argue with Your captivating locks?
For a lifetime I’ve smelled the scent of Your tresses,
That fragrance still lingers in my heart’s nostrils.
Hafez, Your troubled state is bad, but
The fragrance of the beloved’s tresses makes Your troubles seem good.
