Like the wind, I will set my heart on the beloved's path, Ghazal 135 by Hafez Shirazi
Description: English Translation:
Like the wind, I will set my heart on the beloved's path,
I will fill my breath with the sweet scent of musk.
My life is passing in vain without wine and a lover,
From today, I will start working.
Whatever reputation I gained from knowledge and religion,
I will offer as a gift to the dust of that beloved's path.
Like a morning candle, I have become illuminated by his love,
That I will spend my life in this work and endeavor.
For the sake of your eyes, I will ruin myself,
I will make the foundation of our old covenant firm.
Where is the gentle breeze? For this blood-soaked life of mine, like a flower,
I will sacrifice to the scent of my beloved's hair.
Hypocrisy and ostentation do not bring peace to Hafez's heart,
I will choose the path of revelry and love.
