Those preachers who make such a show in the prayer niche and pulpit, Ghazal 199 by Hafez
Description: English Translation:
Those preachers who make such a show in the prayer niche and pulpit,
When they go into private, they do something else entirely!
I have a question, ask the wise of the assembly:
Why do those who call others to repentance repent so little themselves?
It seems they don't believe in the Day of Judgment,
For they play such games with hearts and deceit in the court of the Judge.
O Lord, show these hypocrites with their own donkey,
For they make such a fuss over Turkish and Armenian slaves.
O beggar of the monastery, rise up, for in the monastery of the Magi,
They give a water that enriches hearts.
His endless beauty kills so many lovers,
Another group raise their heads from the unseen out of love.
O angel, recite your rosary at the door of the wine house,
For there, the nature of Adam is intoxicated.
At dawn, a cry came from the heavens, and Reason said,
The celestial beings seem to be memorizing Hafez's poetry.
