Rubaei 23 By Hafez Shirazi

Description: Literal Translation:

I clung to his hyacinth locks, out of need,
I said, "Please mend the affairs of this lovesick one."
He said, "Take my lips, but leave my curls alone,"
"In sweet pleasure, not in a long life."

Poetic and Interpretive Translation:

In desperation, I clung to his flowing hair,
Pleading for him to ease my despair.
He replied, "Kiss me, but don't touch my curls,"
"Seek joy in the moment, not in earthly whirls."
