Ghazal 069 from Divan of Hafez
There's no one who isn't captivated by those twin locks of yours,
Who passes by without being ensnared by misfortune?
Since your eyes steal hearts from the solitary,
Being with you isn't a sin on our part.
Your face must be a mirror of divine grace,
Indeed, it is so, and there's no hypocrisy in this face.
The narcissus seeks the style of your eye, what an eye!
The poor flower knows nothing of pride and shyness in its gaze.
For God's sake, don't braid your hair, for we have
No night without a hundred cries with the morning breeze.
Return, for without your face, O flame of my heart,
In the gathering of friends, there's no trace of light and purity.
Caring for strangers is the effect of a beautiful remembrance,
My dear, isn't this a rule in your city?
Yesterday I said, "My beloved, keep your promise,"
She said, "O master, you're mistaken, there's no loyalty in this promise."
If the old magician became my guide, what difference would it make?
There's no secret in any head that isn't from God.
What can a lover do if they don't bear the burden of blame?
No brave heart is a shield against the arrows of fate.
In the monastery of the ascetic and in the solitude of the Sufi,
Nothing but the corner of your eyebrow is a place of prayer.
O lute, plunged into the blood of Hafez's heart,
Your thought is surely not without the zeal of the Quran and God.
