My heart she stole, and hid her face from me, Ghazal 137 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
My heart he stole, and hid his face from me,
Oh God, with whom can one play such a game?
My lonely nights were intent on killing me,
But his thought showered me with boundless kindness.
Why should I not be as blood-red as a tulip?
For his narcissus has held his head high towards us.
To whom shall I say, with this heart-burning pain?
My physician has aimed at my weak life.
I burned like a candle in such a way that upon me,
A jug wept and a lute wailed.
O gentle breeze, if you have a remedy, now is the time,
For the pain of my longing is intent on killing me.
Amongst kind people, how can one say?
That our beloved spoke thus and acted so.
An enemy did not do to Hafez's life what
The arrow of that eyebrow-bow has done.
