Ghazal No. 292: I swear by the majesty, power, and glory of the brave king
غزل شماره ۲۹۲: قسم به حشمت و جاه و جلال شاه شجاع
I swear by the grandeur and majesty of the brave king
For there is no dispute between me and him regarding wealth and status
قسم به حشمت و جاه و جلال شاه شجاع
که نیست با کسم از بهر مال و جاه نزاع
Bring me the wine of my home, for it is very intoxicating
The companion of wine has arrived, O friend, farewell to repentance
شراب خانگیم بس می مغانه بیار
حریف باده رسید ای رفیق توبه وداع
Wash and clean your robes with wine, for God's sake
For I do not smell the scent of goodness from this situation
خدای را به میام شست و شوی خرقه کنید
که من نمیشنوم بوی خیر از این اوضاع
See how it dances and goes to the lament of the harp
For the one who did not give permission to listen to the music
ببین که رقص کنان میرود به ناله چنگ
کسی که رخصه نفرمودی استماع سماع
Look at the lovers and the sweetness of this blessing
For I am the servant of your generosity, and you are the obeyed king
به عاشقان نظری کن به شکر این نعمت
که من غلام مطیعم تو پادشاه مطاع
We are thirsty for the blessing of your cup, but
We do not make boldness and do not give headaches
به فیض جرعه جام تو تشنهایم ولی
نمیکنیم دلیری نمیدهیم صداع
Do not separate Hafez's forehead and face from God
From the dust of the threshold of the grandeur of the brave king
جبین و چهره حافظ خدا جدا مکناد
ز خاک بارگه کبریای شاه شجاع
