Salma captivated my heart with her tresses

And my soul calls to me every day

O beloved, have mercy on my heartless self

And unite me with you despite the enemies

O beloved, in the sorrow of longing for your love

We rely on the Lord of all servants

If you deny me because of my love for Salma

Move that beautiful face out of my path

For like the one who loses their heart to the idol of beauty

I am drowned in the sea of love

I endure the penalty for seeking your kiss

Your beauty led me astray from all my hopes

The sorrow of this heart inevitably consumes it

And otherwise, it would not have found joy with you

Hafez's heart was entangled in your hair's curls

In a dark night, and God is the guide
