Seclusion is pleasant if the beloved is my companion

Not that I burn and he is the candle of the gathering

I would not take Solomon's ring at any cost

For sometimes it is in the hands of the devil

O God, do not allow that in the sanctuary of union

The rival be intimate and disappointment be my share

O phoenix, never cast the shadow of honor

On that land where the parrot is less esteemed than the crow

What need is there for expressing longing when the burning fire of the heart

Can be recognized by the burning that is in the speech

The desire for your alley does not leave my mind, indeed

The heart of a stranger is restless for its homeland

Even if Hafez becomes like a lily with ten tongues

Like a bud, he will have a seal on his lips before you
