If the beloveds behave in such a manner, Ghazal 197 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
If the beloveds behave in such a manner,
They will cause cracks in the faith of the ascetics.
Wherever that narcissus branch blooms,
They will recognize its flowerbed as the narcissus' eye.
O young cypress-like one, take care,
Before they make a polo stick out of your stature.
Lovers have no authority over themselves,
Whatever your command is, they will do.
In my eyes, it’s less than a drop
These tales they make of a storm.
When our beloved begins to dance,
The celestial beings will clap their hands on the celestial throne.
My eyes are filled with blood,
Where is such cruelty done to a human?
Gladly, a lazy heart will rise with sorrow,
They will find sweet pleasure in the crucible of separation.
Don’t hide your head, Hafez, from the midnight sigh,
Until the morning makes your face radiant.
