Ghazal 93: What grace it was when suddenly the drop of your pen
غزل شماره ۹۳: چه لطف بود که ناگاه رشحه قلمت
What grace it was that suddenly your pen's drop
Presented our service's rights to your generosity
چه لطف بود که ناگاه رشحه قلمت
حقوق خدمت ما عرضه کرد بر کرمت
With pen's tip you've written my greeting
May time's workshop not be without your writing
به نوک خامه رقم کردهای سلام مرا
که کارخانه دوران مباد بی رقمت
I won't say you remembered heartless me by mistake
For in wisdom's account there's no error in your pen
نگویم از من بیدل به سهو کردی یاد
که در حساب خرد نیست سهو بر قلمت
Don't make me humble in thanks for this blessing
That eternal fortune held you dear and respected
مرا ذلیل مگردان به شکر این نعمت
که داشت دولت سرمد عزیز و محترمت
Come for with your tress's head I will make agreement
That if my head goes I won't lift from your foot
بیا که با سر زلفت قرار خواهم کرد
که گر سرم برود برندارم از قدمت
Of our state your heart becomes aware perhaps when
Tulips sprout from the dust of your grief's slain
ز حال ما دلت آگه شود مگر وقتی
که لاله بردمد از خاک کشتگان غمت
Our thirsty soul with a sip comprehend
When they give Khidr's pure water from your Jamshid's cup
روان تشنه ما را به جرعهای دریاب
چو میدهند زلال خضر ز جام جمت
May your time always be pleasant O Jesus of morning breeze
For heart-wounded Hafez's soul came alive by your breath
همیشه وقت تو ای عیسی صبا خوش باد
که جان حافظ دلخسته زنده شد به دمت
