If a thousand enemies intend to destroy me

I am not afraid of the enemies, for I have your friendship

The hope of union with you keeps me alive

And if not, every moment I am afraid of destruction from your separation

If I do not smell your scent with every breath

I will tear my collar like a flower from sorrow, every moment

It is impossible for my two eyes to sleep from your imagination

My heart is patient in your separation, alas

If you wound me, who else will heal me

And if you give me poison, who else will give me the antidote

With the strike of your sword, our life is eternal

For my soul has become pure, to be sacrificed for you

Do not turn away, for if you strike me with your sword

I will shield your head and hands, I do not have the strength to defend myself

You are seen by every gaze, just as you are

Each person understands according to their knowledge

Hafez becomes dear to the world in the eyes of the people

For he places his face on the ground at your door, in humility
