Sufi set trap and opened box's lid

Made foundation of deceit with trickster heaven

Heaven's game will break his egg in hat

For showed magic to mystery's people

Come cupbearer for Sufis' graceful beloved

Came to display again and began coquetry

Where's this musician from who made Iraqi tune

And made melody of return to Hijaz way

O heart come let's go to God's refuge

From what made short sleeve and long hand

Don't make artifice for whoever didn't play love straight

Love closed meaning's door on heart's face

Tomorrow when truth's court becomes manifest

Ashamed is wayfarer who based deed on metaphor

O gracefully walking partridge where going stop

Don't be deceived that ascetic cat prayed

Hafez don't blame the rogues for in pre-eternity

God made us free from hypocritical asceticism
