German Translation

[1] دوش در حلقه ما قصه گیسوی تو بود
تا دل شب سخن از سلسله موی تو بود

[2] دل که از ناوک مژگان تو در خون می‌گشت
باز مشتاق کمانخانه ابروی تو بود

[3] هم عفاالله صبا کز تو پیامی می‌داد
ور نه در کس نرسیدیم که از کوی تو بود

[4] عالم از شور و شر عشق خبر هیچ نداشت
فتنه انگیز جهان غمزه جادوی تو بود

[5] من سرگشته هم از اهل سلامت بودم
دام راهم شکن طره هندوی تو بود

[6] بگشا بند قبا تا بگشاید دل من
که گشادی که مرا بود ز پهلوی تو بود

[7] به وفای تو که بر تربت حافظ بگذر
کز جهان می‌شد و در آرزوی روی تو بود

[1] Last night ,in our assembly of lovers for zikr ,formed like a circle ,the tale of Thy tress the path of seekers to the divine world was :
Until the heart middle of the night which is the season for manifestations speech regarding the long chain of Thy hair was .

[2] The heart that in the world of non - existence from the point of Thy eye - lash turned to blood ,
Again ,desirous of the bow - house wound of Thy eye - brow was .

[3] O true Beloved pardon the wind ,because it brought a message from Thee
And ,if the wind had not been ,Thy message would not have arrived for we reached met with none ,who ,from the head of Thy street ,was .

[4] Of the tumult and the uproar of love the knowledge of God the world had no news
The calamity - exciter of the world ,Thy glance of sorcery absolute love was .

[5] O true Beloved I ,head - bewildered ,also was of the people of safety
The coil of Thy black tress ,the snare of my path was .

[6] Loose the fastening of Thy coat ,so that my heart in the snare of Thy tress may expand and rest
For the openness ease of heart that was mine ,from sitting and sleeping by Thy side was .

[7] By Thy fidelity I adjure Thee pass by the tomb of Hafiz
Who went from the world and in desire of Thy face was .

[1] In unserm Kreis ist gestern Von deinem Haar gesprochen worden, Bis alle freye Herzen In Nacht verstricket worden.

[2] Sie, die durch deine Wimpern In Blut gestürzet worden, Sie sind aus Lust der Brauen Zu Thoren abermal geworden.

[4] Vom Ach und Weh der Liebe Hat der Gelehrte keine Nachricht, Daher von Wimpern Zwietracht Auf dieser Welt gestiftet worden.

[5] Ich zählte mich Verwirrten, Einst selber zu den Auserwählten, Da ist am Weg ein Fallstrick Aus deinem Haar gespannet worden.

[6] Lös auf des Kleides Gürtel, Daß sich mein Herz auch wieder löse, Die Freude, die ich hatte, Ist mir allein durch dich geworden.

[7] Wenn du die Treue liebest, So komm einst zu dem Grab Hafisens, Er ist ja nur aus Sehnsucht Nach dir als Staub entseelt worden.

German Translation

[1] سر ارادت ما و آستان حضرت دوست
که هر چه بر سر ما می‌رود ارادت اوست

[2] نظیر دوست ندیدم اگر چه از مه و مهر
نهادم آینه‌ها در مقابل رخ دوست

[3] صبا ز حال دل تنگ ما چه شرح دهد
که چون شکنج ورق‌های غنچه تو بر توست

[4] نه من سبوکش این دیر رندسوزم و بس
بسا سرا که در این کارخانه سنگ و سبوست

[5] مگر تو شانه زدی زلف عنبرافشان را
که باد غالیه سا گشت و خاک عنبربوست

[6] نثار روی تو هر برگ گل که در چمن است
فدای قد تو هر سروبن که بر لب جوست

[7] زبان ناطقه در وصف شوق نالان است
چه جای کلک بریده زبان بیهده گوست

[8] رخ تو در دلم آمد مراد خواهم یافت
چرا که حال نکو در قفای فال نکوست

[9] نه این زمان دل حافظ در آتش هوس است
که داغدار ازل همچو لاله خودروست

[1] Together are the head of our desire ,and the threshold of the Mighty Friend God
For ,whatever of good ,or of bad passeth over our head is His will .

[2] My Friend's equal ,I have not seen although of the gleaming moon and of the shining sun ,
The mirrors opposite to the Friend's face I placed .

[3] Of our straitened heart ,giveth the breeze what news ,
That ,like the folding of the leaves of the rose bud ,tightly folded it the heart is .

[4] Not alone ,am I a wine - drinker a lover of this cloister ,profligate consuming the wine tavern ,the stage of love
O many a great head in this workshop is only the dust of the pitcher

[5] Verily ,Thou combedest Thy tress ,ambergris - scattering ,
Since that the breeze became like civet ; and the dust ,beperfumed with ambergris .

[6] The sprinkling of Thy face be every rose - leaf that is in the sward
The ransom of Thy lofty form be every cypress that is on the river - bank .

[7] In the description of His Love ,even the tongue of speech is dumb
What room for the feeble reed ,split of tongue ,folly uttering

[8] Of happy omen Thy face came into my heart : my desire I shall gain :
For ,after the happy omen ,is the happy state .

[9] Not ,at this time ,is Hafiz's heart in the fire of search of love
For ,in Eternity without beginning ,it was the possessor of the mark of love like the self - growing wild tulip of Shlraz

[1] Mein Kopf und Willen fügen sich Zur Schwelle meine Freundinn, Was über meinen Kopf ergeht, Ergeht nach Ihrem Willen.

[2] Ich schaute Ihres gleichen nicht, Wiewohl dem Mond der Sonne, Den Spiegel ich entgegenhielt Blos des Vergleiches willen.

[3] Was kann der Ostwind von der Qual Des armen Herzens sagen? Es ist verwickelt Blatt in Blatt Wie eine Rosenknospe.

[4] In dieser trunknen bösen Welt, Sind außer mir noch Trunkne; Gar viele Köpfe sind allhier Geformt aus Thon der Kanne;

[5] Vielleicht hast du mit einem Kamm Dein Ambrahaar durchfahren, Weil Moschusduft im Ostwind haucht Und Ambra aus der Erde.

[6] Ein jedes Rosenblatt der Flur Sey deiner Wangen Streue, Und die Cypreßen an dem Fluß Ein Opfer deines Wuchses!

[7] Die Sprach und Redekunst verstummet, Soll sie die Sehnsucht schildern, Wie könnte das, der Feder Rohr, Das schwätzende, gespaltne!

[8] Dein Angesicht kam in mein Herz, Nun wird mein Wunsch erfüllet, Denn gute Dinge folgen stets Auf gute Vorbedeutung.

[9] Es fiel Hafisens Herz nicht jetzt Ins Feuer der Begierde, Von ewig her ist dein Gesicht Gebrannt wie eine Tulpe.

German Translation

[1] سینه مالامال درد است ای دریغا مرهمی
دل ز تنهایی به جان آمد خدا را همدمی

[2] چشم آسایش که دارد از سپهر تیزرو
ساقیا جامی به من ده تا بیاسایم دمی

[3] زیرکی را گفتم این احوال بین خندید و گفت
صعب روزی بوالعجب کاری پریشان عالمی

[4] سوختم در چاه صبر از بهر آن شمع چگل
شاه ترکان فارغ است از حال ما کو رستمی

[5] در طریق عشقبازی امن و آسایش بلاست
ریش باد آن دل که با درد تو خواهد مرهمی

[6] اهل کام و ناز را در کوی رندی راه نیست
ره روی باید جهان سوزی نه خامی بی‌غمی

[7] آدمی در عالم خاکی نمی‌آید به دست
عالمی دیگر بباید ساخت و از نو آدمی

[8] خیز تا خاطر بدان ترک سمرقندی دهیم
کز نسیمش بوی جوی مولیان آید همی

[9] گریه حافظ چه سنجد پیش استغنای عشق
کاندر این دریا نماید هفت دریا شبنمی

[1] Alas full ,full of pain is my heart ,a plaister
God through loneliness ,to giving up life my heart hath come ; a companion

[2] From the swift moving sky ,hope of ease ,hath who
O Saki a cup bring ,so that I may rest a while .

[3] To a wit ,I said Behold these circumstances .He laughed and said
A work ,difficult a state ,the father of wonders perturbed ,a world .

[4] In the pit of patience ,for that candle of Chigil ,I consumed
Of our state ,the King of the Turkans Turans is careless .Where a Rustam

[5] In the Path of love - play ,calamity is safety and ease
Wounded be that heart that with on account of pain desireth a plaister

[6] No path ,into the street of profligates ,is for the man of desire and indulgence
A wayfarer is necessary ,a world - consumer not a raw one ,without a grief .

[7] In this dusty world ,to hand cometh not a man
It is necessary to make another world ,and anew a man .

[8] Arise .To the saucy ones of Samarkand ,let us give our heart
For ,from its breeze ,the fragrance of the river Mulian the Oxus cometh anon .

[9] Hafiz before in comparison with love's independence what weigheth thy weeping
For ,in this deluge ,the seven all the seas of the world appear only a little night - dew .

[1] Voll von Schmerzen ist die Brust, Gebet mir ein Pflaster! Einsam ist mein Herz entseelt, Herr! gieb mir Vertraute!

[2] Wer hofft von dem schwarzen Loos Frieden oder Ruhe! Schenke, bringe mir ein Glas, Um doch auszuruhen.

[3] Siehe, sprach ich, sieh' das Ding, Aber lachend sprach Er: Wunderbar ist dieses Ding, Alles ist Verwirrung.

[4] In dem Brunnen der Geduld Brannt' ich für die Kerze, Sieh' der Turkomanne schläft, Bringet mir Rustemen.

[5] Auf dem Weg der Liebe ist, Ruhe nur ein Unglück. Immer bleibe wund das Herz, Welches Pflaster fodert.

[6] Allumstrickte führt kein Weg Zu dem Gau' der Trunknen, Ein verbrannter Armer ist Hier der beste Weiser.

[7] Keinen Adam giebt es mehr Auf dem Erdenrunde, Andre Welten sind mir noth Und ein andrer Adam.

[8] Stehe auf, daß ich mein Herz Jenem Türken gebe, Denn von seinem Hauche kömmt Mir der Duft des Oxus.

[9] Wiegest du Hafisens Gram Gegen Wohlbehagen? Gegen diese Sündfluth sind Sieben Meer' ein Tropfen.

German Translation

[1] از دیده خون دل همه بر روی ما رود
بر روی ما ز دیده چه گویم چه‌ها رود

[2] ما در درون سینه هوایی نهفته‌ایم
بر باد اگر رود دل ما زان هوا رود

[3] خورشید خاوری کند از رشک جامه چاک
گر ماه مهرپرور من در قبا رود

[4] بر خاک راه یار نهادیم روی خویش
بر روی ما رواست اگر آشنا رود

[5] سیل است آب دیده و هر کس که بگذرد
گر خود دلش ز سنگ بود هم ز جا رود

[6] ما را به آب دیده شب و روز ماجراست
زان رهگذر که بر سر کویش چرا رود

[7] حافظ به کوی میکده دایم به صدق دل
چون صوفیان صومعه دار از صفا رود

[1] From the eye ,all over our face ,the heart's blood goeth
From the eye ,against our face ,thou seest not what calamity goeth .

[2] Within the heart ,a great desire for love we have concealed
If ,through that desire ,to the wind of destruction our heart goeth ,it goeth .

[3] From envy ,the glorious eastern sun rendeth his garment
If ,into a coat ,my moon the beloved love - cherisher ,goeth .

[4] Our face ,on the dust of the Friend's path ,we placed
Dust on our face is lawful ,if the Friend goeth .

[5] The water of our eye is a great torrent .By whomsoever it passeth ,
Though his heart be of stone ,from place senseless and intoxicated it the heart goeth .

[6] As to the water of our eye ,night and day ,ours is the talk ,
Of that passage of tears that ,at the head of His street ,why it the tear goeth .

[7] To the street of the wine - house ,ever with purity of heart ,Hafiz dancing and bounding
Like the Suf in ecstasy and mystic state cloister - keeping ,with purity goeth .

[1] Des Herzens Blut von meinem Auge Auf das Gesicht herunter geht, Was soll ich sagen, was vom Auge Auf das Gesicht herunter geht.

[2] Ich habe tief in meinem Busen Die Sehnsucht und Begier versteckt, Und diese Sehnsucht ists, durch welche Mein Herz einst in die Lüfte geht.

[3] Sobald mein liebgewohnter Vollmond Daher in seinem Kleide geht.

[4] Ich habe in den Staub des Weges Des Freundes mein Gesicht gelegt, Wohl billig ist, daß beim Gesichte Er als bekannt vorüber geht.

[5] Der Augen Wasser ist ein Gießbach, Durch dessen Kraft ein jedes Herz, Und wär' es von dem härt'sten Steine, Von selbst aus seinem Platze geht.

[6] Mit meines Auges Thränenstrom Hab' ich zu zanken Tag und Nacht, Ich frag' ihn aus, warum er immer Nach des Geliebten Wohnung geht.

[7] Es geht Hafis mit reinem Herzen Und fröhlich zu der Schenke hin, Wie reinen Sinns ein frommer Mann In seine Zelle geht.

German Translation

[1] راهیست راه عشق که هیچش کناره نیست
آن جا جز آن که جان بسپارند چاره نیست

[2] هر گه که دل به عشق دهی خوش دمی بود
در کار خیر حاجت هیچ استخاره نیست

[3] ما را ز منع عقل مترسان و می بیار
کان شحنه در ولایت ما هیچ کاره نیست

[4] از چشم خود بپرس که ما را که می‌کشد
جانا گناه طالع و جرم ستاره نیست

[5] او را به چشم پاک توان دید چون هلال
هر دیده جای جلوه آن ماه پاره نیست

[6] فرصت شمر طریقه رندی که این نشان
چون راه گنج بر همه کس آشکاره نیست

[7] نگرفت در تو گریه حافظ به هیچ رو
حیران آن دلم که کم از سنگ خاره نیست

[1] Love's path is a Path whereof the shore is none
And there ,unless they surrender their soul ,remedy is none .

[2] Every moment that to love thou givest thy heart is a happy moment ,
In the right work ,need of praying to God to be directed aright is none .

[3] With reason's prohibition of wine affright us not and bring wine
In our Land ,the work of the watchman reason work - is none .

[4] Ask thou thy own eye Who draweth us
O soul the sin of fortune and the crime of the star is none .

[5] Him the true Beloved one can see with the pure eye like the hardly visible crescent moon
The place of splendour of that moon - fragment ,every eye is not .

[6] Reckon as plunder the path of profligacy .For this track ,
Like the path to the hidden treasure ,evident to every one is not .

[7] In no way ,Hafiz's weeping affected thee
Astonishment is mine at that heart ,which less hard than the hard stone is not .

[1] Der Liebe Weg ist unbegränzt, Die Seele wird dort aufgeopfert, Sonst ist kein Mittel.

[2] Wenn du dein Herz der Liebe giebst, Ists gute Zeit und gute Dinge, Brauchen nicht Rath erst.

[3] Erschreck' mich nicht mit der Vernunft, Bring' Wein; denn nichts hat sie als Wächterin Uns hier zu schaffen.

[4] Dein Auge frag' wer mich erschlug, Mein süßes Kind! dies kömmt nicht meinem Schicksal zu Schulden.

[5] Wie für den Neumond brauchts für Sie Ein scharfes Auge, denn nicht jeder Schauet den Mondkreis.

[6] Benütz' die Trunkenheit mit Klugheit, Der Weg dazu ist, wie ein Schatz, nicht Jeglichem offen.

[7] Hafisens Thräne rührt dich nicht, Bestaunenswürdig ist dein Herz, es Weicht nicht dem Marmor.

[1] باغبان گر پنج روزی صحبت گل بایدش
بر جفای خار هجران صبر بلبل بایدش

[2] ای دل اندربند زلفش از پریشانی منال
مرغ زیرک چون به دام افتد تحمل بایدش

[3] رند عالم سوز را با مصلحت بینی چه کار
کار ملک است آن که تدبیر و تامل بایدش

[4] تکیه بر تقوا و دانش در طریقت کافریست
راهرو گر صد هنر دارد توکل بایدش

[5] با چنین زلف و رخش بادا نظربازی حرام

[8] کیست حافظ تا ننوشد باده بی آواز رود
عاشق مسکین چرا چندین تجمل بایدش

[1] The gardener the holy traveller if ,for a space of five days ,a life - time the society of the rose the true Beloved is necessary for him ,
Against the tyranny of the thorn of separation ,the patience of the patient bulbul is necessary for him .

[2] O heart in the bond of His tress the world regarding perturbation ,bewail not ,
When ,into the bond ,the wise bird falleth ,fortitude is necessary for it .

[4] In tarikat ,reliance on piety and knowledge is infidelity
If a hundred kinds of skill ,the way - farer have ,trust in God is necessary for him .

[5] With tress and face like this of His the true Beloved unlawful be glance - playing of love
To that one ,if the jasmine - face ,and the hyacinth - curl is necessary for him .

[6] The disdainful airs of that intoxicated narcissus ,it is necessary to endure ,
O distraught heart since that tress and fore - lock is necessary for it .

[7] O Saki in the cup's circulation ,delay how long
When with lovers ,the cup's circulation chanceth ,succession continuity is necessary for it .

[8] Who is Hafiz since ,without the harp's sound ,he drinketh not the cup
The wretched lover patience like this ,why' is necessary for him

[1] Der Gärtner, dem fünf Tage langGespräch der Rosen ziemet,Er weiß wohl, daß der NachtigallDes Dornes Leiden ziemet.

[2] In ihrer Locken Banden klag'Nicht über dein Verderben,Weil kleinen Vögeln in dem NetzKein Weheklagen ziemet.

[3] Was hat der Trunkene der WeltZu thun wohl mit Geschäften?Da Rath und tiefe UrtheilskraftZu dem Geschäfte ziemet.

[4] Ungläubig ist, wer auf dem WegDer Lieb' und Tugend prahlet,Weil, wenn er Tausende auch hat,Ihm doch Vertrauen ziemet.

[5] Mit solchen Wangen, solchem HaarZu spielen sey verboten,Wenn immer Hyacinthen HaarJasminenantlitz ziemet.

[6] Der trunkenen Narziße ziemtLiebkosungen zu spenden,So lang dem wüsten Herz die LustDes dunkeln Haares ziemet.

[7] O Schenke sag', was weigerst duDas Glas herum zu geben?Da den Verliebten in dem KreisEin stetes Drehen ziemet.

[1] مرحبا ای پیک مشتاقان بده پیغام دوست
تا کنم جان از سر رغبت فدای نام دوست

[2] واله و شیداست دایم همچو بلبل در قفس
طوطی طبعم ز عشق شکر و بادام دوست

[3] زلف او دام است و خالش دانه آن دام و من
بر امید دانه‌ای افتاده‌ام در دام دوست

[4] سر ز مستی برنگیرد تا به صبح روز حشر
هر که چون من در ازل یک جرعه خورد از جام دوست

[5] بس نگویم شمه‌ای از شرح شوق خود از آنک
دردسر باشد نمودن بیش از این ابرام دوست

[6] گر دهد دستم کشم در دیده همچون توتیا
خاک راهی کان مشرف گردد از اقدام دوست

ترک کام خود گرفتم تا برآید کام دوست

زان که درمانی ندارد درد بی‌آرام دوست

[1] Welcome O Messenger of the Longing Ones ,give the message of the Friend
That ,with the essence of pleasure ,I may make my soul a sacrifice for the Friend .

[2] Wailing and lamenting perpetually is like the BulbQl in the cage
Of parrot - nature ,am I through love of sugar the lip and of the almond the eye of the Friend .

[3] His tress is the snare the grain of that snare ,his mole and I ,
In hope of that grain ,have fallen into the snare of the Friend .

[5] Even a little by way of explanation of my own desire ,I uttered not on that account
It is head - pain to show more than this importunity to the Friend .

[6] Into my eye ,I put as collyrium ,if it be gained ,
The dust of the precious path that becometh honoured by the footstep of the Friend .

[7] My inclination ,towards Union and His towards separation
Helpless I abandoned my own desire that there might issue the desire of the Friend .

[8] Hafiz In grief for Him ,continue to consume remediless ,be content .
On that account ,that no remedy hath the restless pain of the Friend .

[1] Sey mir gegrüßt der Wünscher Bothe, Gieb uns Kunde der Freundinn, Daß auch ich die Seele opfern möge Für den Namen der Freundinn.

[2] Närrisch und irr wie die Nachtigallen Hascht des trunkenen Sinnes, Papagey im Bauer gierig Nach dem Zucker der Freundinn.

[3] Netze sind ihre Locken, und ihr Schwarzes Maal ist ein Körnlein; Sehnsuchtsvoll nach dem Körnlein fiel ich In die Netze der Freundinn.

[4] Bis an den jüngsten Tag wird jener Nicht die Trunkenheit lassen, Der so wie ich am Tag des Looses Trank vom Becher der Freundinn.

[5] Ihren Genuß verlang ich sehnlichst, Ihr Verlangen ist Trennung, Gerne vergeß ich meine Wünsche, Wird vergnüget die Freundinn.

[6] Meinem Gesichte will ich schwarzen Staub auflegen statt Schminke, Wenn mir ein gutes Glück den Staub bringt Von der Schwelle der Freundinn.

[7] Meine Begierde hab ich weiter Nicht erläutert der Freundinn, Denn die Erklärung, ach! ich fürcht' es Wäre beschwerlich der Freundinn.

[1] When His the true Beloved's tress ,ambergris - diffusing ,the breeze fate and destiny dishevelled ,
Every shattered one ,with whom it the breeze joined ,his life fresh became .

[2] A fellow - breather is where so that to him explanation of my grief ,I may give
From the time of separation from Him ,what torments my heart endureth .

[3] Of the leaves of the rose the limbs of man time made a token of Thy face O true Beloved
But on looking - well through shame of Thee ,concealed it man in the rose - bud the closed tomb

[4] Thou asleep and no limit appeared
Thanks be to God for this Path of love that hath no end

[5] Perchance ,the beauty of the Ka'ba the true Beloved desireth excuse for want of union of the way - farer to the Ka'ba
For ,in its desert ,consumed the soul of those alive of heart lovers of God

[6] To this shattered house of sorrow the lover's body who bringeth .
From the pit of the true Beloved's chin trace of the Yusuf of the heart

[7] That tress - tip the world of evidence ,or this world I take and it to the khwaja's hand ,I give ,
That ,perchance ,my justice from its hands he may take and ,holding me excused ,may not drive me away

[8] In the morning ,by the border of the sward ,from the bulbul I heard
His melody of Hafiz ,sweet of voice ,sweet of song .

[1] Ach wer bringt in mein Haus die TrauerkundeVon dem Jusuf des Herzens aus dem Kinnbrunn!

[2] Als der Ostwind aus ihren Locken hauchte,Lebten Kranke, die er umfloß, von Neuem.

Excellent the Tigris of Baghdad and the fragrant wine .

Strive that ,from fortune ,the justice of ease thou mayst take .

For all this is not worth the occupation of a transitory world .

Thy eyebrow ,bow - possessor ,taketh the heart by its forehead .

O sage do not a deed ,that bringeth penitence .

[22] One day ,by my door ,enter ,so that ,with joy ,the hand I may clap ;
Saying : Verily ,joined to me is luminosity as a guest .

[23] With kindness ,tranquillise Hafiz's heart ,
O Thou ,whose beauteous tress - coil is the assembly - place perfection of dispersion

[24] O idol ,stony of heart if of me careless thou be ,
My own state ,I will utter before Asaf the second .

[25] O true Beloved Thy well - wisher ,I am ,and this I know that Thou knowest
For ,both the un - seen ,Thou seest ; and also the un - written by fate Thou readest .

[26] In the adoration of Adam ,the angel made resolve of thy ground - kiss ,
For ,in Thy beauty ,something he found more than the way ,. human .

[27] Thy tress's curl is now ,in God's name ,the collectedness of hearts
Be safety thine ,from that breeze that exciteth dispersion

[28] From fortune ,I have the hope that his girdle I may loose
O sky for God's sake ,for me loose the knot frown from the forehead .

[30] The lamp - kindler of our eye is the breeze of the tress of lovely ones
Lord to this gathering smoo .th state of the tress be not grief for the breeze of dispersion

[31] Of the mystery of the lover and of the Beloved ,what gaineth the reproacher
The non - seeing eye especially seeth not a secret mystery .

[32] To be vexed with fellow way - farers ,is not the action of a work - knower
The difficulty of the stage ,endure in memory of a time of ease .

[33] Alas that pleasure of night - sitting up that passed swiftly like the morning breeze
O heart the value of union ,thou knowest ,only when behind in separation thou remainest .

[34] The solving of the work of desirous ones is in that heart - binding eye - brow
For God's sake ,a moment with towards us unloose the knot frown from thy forehead .

[35] Hafiz thee ,the fancy of the yoke of His tress fascinates
See ,so that the ring of impossible fortune ,thou shake not .

[36] People spake ,saying In beauty a second Yusuf thou art
When ,well ,I looked ,verily better than that I had heard thou art .

[37] Sweeter than that which ,with sweet smile ,they say thou art ,
Khusrau of the lovely ones for ,the Shirin of the age ,thou art .

[38] To the folded rose - bud ,thy mouth ,one cannot compare
Never is the rose - bud with this narrow - mouthness .

[39] If ,on account of thy stature and gait ,the moving cypress remained behind in its place ,
Move thou .For thou hast surpassed the moving cypress in movingness .

[40] A hundred times Thou saidest : From this mouth ,thy desire I give
Like the noble ten - tongued lily ,why art Thou all a tongue

[41] Thou saidest Thy desire ,I will give thy life ,I wilt take
I fear my desire ,Thou givest not and my life Thou wilt take .

[42] Through the shield of my life ,Thy sick ,languishing eye causeth to pass the poplar arrow
The eye sick ,who hath seen with so strong a bow

[43] O true Beloved like the worthless tear from the eye of man ,him Thou easiest ,
Him ,whom a moment ,away from Thy sight ,Thou drivest .

[44] Away from before Thyself ,Thy own grief - stricken Hafiz ,drive not
For ,through love for Thy face ,he gave sacrificed heart ,faith ,and youth .

[45] In the path of love to Thee ,like the pen ,a foot out of his head Hafiz made ,
It ,one moment ,like a letter out of kindness ,why readest Thou not

[46] Breeze of the morning of happiness for that trace that thou knowest ,
To a certain one's street ,pass at that time that thou knowest .

[47] The footman of the chamber of mystery ,thou art and on the head of the Path ,is my eye
By manliness ,hot by order ,urge in that way ,that thou knowest .

[48] Say : From my hand passed my feeble soul .For God's sake ,
From Thy ruby lip soul - refreshing ,give that that Thou knowest .

[49] O true Beloved these few words I wrote ,in such a way that the stranger hath not known
Them by way of kindness ,do Thou also read in such a way that Thou knowest .

[50] On Thy girdle ,gold - woven ,hope how may I not establish
O idol in that waist ,is a subtlety that Thou knowest .

[51] With us ,the image of Thy slaying sword is the tale of the thirsty one and of water whereto he desireth to reach
Thy own captive ,Thou seizest .Slay in such a way that Thou knowest .

[52] Hafiz in this matter ,one are Turki and Tazi Arabian
Love's tale ,relate in every tongue language that thou knowest .

[53] Two friends holy travellers good of understanding ,and of old wine a quantity ,two mans ,'
A little leisure ,and a book ,and a sward - corner .

[54] For this ,and the next ,world I give not this state
Though ,of carpers momently ,fall upon me

[55] Every one who ,for the world's treasure ,gave the treasure of contentment ,
Sold ,the precious Yusuf of Egypt for a very paltry sum .

[56] Come ; for not less becometh the amplitude of this workshop the world
By the austerity of one like thee or ,by the profligacy of one like me .

[57] On the day of events of death with cheering wine ,'tis necessary to tell one's grief
For ,on none ,is reliance at a time like this .

[58] Happy of heart ,in a corner sit and behold
That none keepeth in mind so strange a calamity .

[59] In the hand of the mean the watcher I keep seeing my idol the beloved
Thus ,the vengeful sky recognised the right of service of one like me .

[60] In the mirror of the Picture - establisher God the hidden form ,behold
If ,for thee out of the country of contentment ,desire maketh a native land .

[61] O heart strive thou for patience .For God delivereth not
A seal - ring so precious as patience to the hand of an evil one .

[62] From the fierce wind of vicissitude ,one cannot see ,
That ,in this sward ,hath been even a red rose ,or a wild white rose .

[63] From this simum blast of lust that ,by the garden - borders ,passed ,
Wonder that from the heart of love's lust the colour of a rose remaineth ,or the perfume of a jessamine .

[64] I have heard that ,for dogs ,thou appointest a collar
On Hafiz's neck ,why placest thou not a rope

[65] Hafiz in this calamity ,ruined became time's temper
Where is the thought of a physician or the judgment of a Barhaman

[66] Drink the cup of the wine of unity of a man
So that ,by it grief's root ,up from the heart ,thou mayst pluck .

[67] Expanded ,keep the heart ,like the cup of wine
Head closed how long like a large jar

[68] When ,from the jar of selflessness ,a ritl thou drinkest ,
Less of thyself voluntarily thou boastest of self .

[69] Like the humble and worthless stone at thy foot be ,not like the water of the cloud glorying in sublimity
All colour of deceit ,thou mixest and wet of skirt lust - stained thou art .

[70] To wine ,bind the heart ,so that ,like a man ,
The neck of hypocrisy and of piety thou mayst shatter .

[71] Arise ,and ,like Hafiz ,an effort in the service of the Pir of tarikat make so that ,perchance ,
Thyself ,at the true Beloved's foot ,thou mayest cast .

[72] Tis morning ; and ,droppeth hail from the cloud of the winter - month Bahman
The requisites of the morning cup ,prepare and give a cup of one ' man .'

[73] The blood red wine of the cup ,drink for lawful is its blood
In the work of the cup ,engaged be ; for 'tis a work fit to be done .

[74] If ,at dawn ,thee ,wine - sickness give headache ,
Verily ,best ,that the forehead of the vintner ,thou shatter .

[75] Saki at hand to give the cup be for ,in ambush for us ,is grief
Minstrel so that grief may not reach us keep this very path of song that thou singest .

[76] Give wine for ,the secret to my ear ,the harp hath brought and said
Happily pass life and ,hear this bowed Pir the harp

[77] Hafiz by the independence of profligates ,I conjure thee drink wine ,
So that ,thou mayst hear the song of the Singer ,God the Independent One .

[78] Into the sea of self and self - praise ,I am fallen .Bring
Wine ,so that freedom from self and self - praise me ,it may give .

[79] Hafiz in the rivulet of the eye ,the plant of thy stature
Drank blood ,and established fruit .It thou wishest to up - pluck .

[80] O thou who ,in our slaughter ,mercy exercisest not
Profit and capital ,thou consumest manliness ,thou showest not .

[82] Since ,with a corner of thy eye ,our grief it is possible to take ,
The part of justice it is not ,that our remedy for freedom from grief thou makest not .

[83] Since ,in hope of thee ,our eye is the ocean through weeping why is it that
On the ocean - shore ,in recreation ,passing thou makest not

[84] The tale of every violence that ,of thy gentle nature ,they made ,
Is the word of the interested and is therefore discredited Those deeds of violence thou doest not .

[85] O Zahid if our beloved display splendour to thee by visiting thee
From God ,save wine and the beloved ,a wish thou makest not .

[86] O Hafiz adoration of his eye - brow curved like the prayer - arch ,make
For save here ,a prayer from sincerity's source thou makest not .

[87] This my subtlety ,hear that ,free from grief ,thyself thou mayst make ;
Blood of grief thou drinkest ,if search for victuals ,not placed intended for thee thou makest .

[88] In the end ,the clay of the goglet - maker potters thou wilt become ;
Now ,think of the pitcher of thy heart that ,it ,full of wine of ma'rifat and of love thou mayst make .

[89] If ,of those men thou be ,whose desire is paradise ,
O Pari - born ease with man ,how long is it that thou makest

[90] On the sitting - place of the great ,boastingly it is impossible to lean ,
Unless ,the chattels of greatness ,all prepared ,thou makest .

[91] The writing of God's bounty ,how taketh away thy heart stuffed with sensual claims and ideas of impurity
Unless pure of the stuffed picture ,the leaf of thy heart thou makest

[92] O Khusrau of those sweet of mouth Hafiz rewards are thine ,
If ,to Farhad ,heart - fallen ,a glance thou makest .

[93] Hafiz if back to the Merciful ,thy own work thou pass ,
O great the pleasure that with fortune God - given ,thou makest .

[94] O breeze the service of Khwaja Jallalu - d - Din do ,
Till ,full of the lily of the valley and of the noble lily ,the world thou makest .

[95] O heart in the Beloved's street ,passing thou makest not
The chattels of conjunction ,thou hast and a work thou doest not .

[96] In the hand ,the chaugan of desire yet the ball thou strikest not
In the hand ,a game like this and a prey thou makest not .

[97] This red blood that ,into thy liver ,waveth ,
For the work use of thy face - colour ,a point why is it that thou makest not

[98] Musky fragrant becometh not creation's breath ; because swiftly like the wind ,
On the dust of the Beloved's street ,passing ,thou makest not .

[99] If ,with the soul of grief ,others have purchased the Beloved ,
O heart this deed ,once ,thou doest not .

[100] From this sward the world I fear that thou takest not the sleeve of the rose ma'rifat
For ,the endurance of a thorn from its rose - bed ,thou sufferest not .

[101] To the dust thou castest ,the cup joyous and full of wine and wine
And of the calamity of wine - sickness ,thought thou makest not .

[102] Enclosed in the sleeve of thy soul ,are a hundred musk - pods
Them ,a sacrifice for the Beloved's tress ,thou makest not .

[103] Hafiz go .For the service of the Friend's court ,
If all do ,once thou doest not .

[104] In the morning time ,a way - farer ,on the confines of a land ,
Kept saying this enigma to a companion

[105] O Sufi pure ,becometh wine at that time ,
When ,in bottle ,itbringeth forth accomplisheth a forty days' space .

[106] If the finger of a Sulaiman be not to wear it
What special excellence giveth the engraving of a seal stone

[107] A hundred times ,vexed is God with that khirka ,
Whereof ,a hundred idols of hypocrisy are in a sleeve .

[108] Dark became the inward parts .It may be that ,from the hidden ,
A lamp ,may uplift a khilvat - sitter .

[109] Though only a name ,without trace of reality is generosity ,
Yet thy need present to a noble one

[110] O Lord of the harvest recompense shall be thine ,
If ,a little pity ,thou show to a poor corn - gleaner .

[111] In none ,I see pleasure and ease
Neither ,the remedy for a heart nor ,the pain of working for a faith .

[112] Neither hope of loftiness to the lofty spirit
Nor love's picture on the tablet of a fore - head .

[113] Neither for Hafiz ,present reading the Kuran and khilvat ;
Nor for the sage ,a knowledge of certainty .

[114] The wine - house - door the threshold of the perfect murshid show so that I may inquire ,
My own end from a fore - see - er .

[115] Although the way of lovely ones is cruel haughty of nature ,
What will it be if thou be content with a sad humble one

[116] Perchance ,with desire of khilvat by the marge of a pool ,thou sittest not ,
If not ,every calamity ,that thou experiencest ,all thou experiences from self - seeingness .

[117] I conjure thee by God ,Whose chosen slave ,thou art ,
That ,to this ancient slave ,none thou choose prefer

[118] After this together are we and beggary .For ,at the head of love's stage ,
To wretched way - farers lovers is no remedy save wretchedness .

[119] Thee ,the Khusrau of those moon of face ,respect and shame did
Afarin on thee for ,worthy of a hundred such thou art .

[120] If ,in safety ,love's deposit I take ,there is no fear
Easy is the state of being void of heart heart - bereft if be not the state of being void of faith infidelity

[121] If ,as to the watcher's tyranny patience I exercise not ,what may I do
To wretched lovers ,is no remedy save wretchedness .

[122] From thy sincere slave ,a disinterested word ,hear ,
O thou that ,the cynosure of great ones ,truth beholding ,art

[123] A dainty one like thee ,pure of heart ,pure of nature ,
That is best that ,with evil men ,thou sit not .

[124] Pity cometh mine that ,to the spectacle of the sward ,thou movest
For ,more pleasant than the red rose and more fresh than the wild white rose ,thou art .

[125] O rose beloved wonderful ,with all thy grace thou sittest with the thorn the watcher
Apparently ,in it ,the good counsel of thy welfare thou seest .

[126] From the rose - garden ,arose a morning breeze in desire of thee
For ,like the beautiful ,red ,beperfumed rose ; and ,like the wild white rose ,fragrant thou art .

[127] From left and right ,the bottle - play of my bloody tears thou seest :
If a moment ,on this spectacle - place of my vision ,thou sittest .

[128] O candle of Chigil with this delicacy ,and heart - alluringness thou art
Worthy of the banquet - place of Khwaja Jalalu - d - Din ,thou art .

[129] Taketh the patience of the heart of Hafiz ,the torrent of these streaming tears ,
O pupil of my eye come to my aid .

[130] O Saki 'tis the shade of the cloud ,and spring ,and the stream - bank
I say not ,do what .Of the men of heart Sufis thou art .Dothou thyself say .

[131] From this picture of outward Sufis cometh not the perfume of one colouredness constancy Arise ,
With pure wine ,the deceit - stained and tattered garment of the Sufi ,wash .

[132] Mean of nature ,is the world on its generosity ,rely not
O world - experienced one from the mean ,stability of foot do not thou - seek .

[133] Thy ear open .For ,this lament ,the bulbul saith
Khwaja deficiency commit not ; the rose of the grace of God smell .

[134] Thee ,two counsels I make ,Hear ; and a hundred treasures bear away :
By the door of pleasure ,enter in the path of defect ,do not strive .

[135] The true Beloved's face ,th'ou seekest Fit ,the mirror of the heart make ;
If not ,ever blossometh not the red rose and the wild white rose from hard iron and from base brass .

[136] Before that ,dust in the wine - house thou becomest
In the pavilion of the wine - house ,a space of one or two days ,strive .

[137] For thanks for that ,that again to spring thou hast reached ,
The root of goodness ,plant ; the rose of the grace of God smell .

[138] Thou saidest From our Hafiz ,cometh the perfume of hypocrisy
Afarin be on the breath for well thou broughtest a great perfume .

[139] From the cypress - hough ,in Pahlavi shout ,the bulbul ,
Last night ,the lesson of the stages of spirituality the Masnavl of Jalalu - d - Din Rumi kept saying

[140] Come ,for the rose hath displayed the fire of Musa ,
So that ,from the fiery bush ,the subtlety of the unity of God thou mayst hear .

[141] Melody - measuring and jest - uttering ,are the birds of the garden ,
So that ,to Pahlavi ghazals and Persian subtleties wine the khwaja may drink .

[142] Happy the time the quiet mat of beggary ; and the sleep thereon of tranquillity ,
For ,not befitting the khusravl crown is this ease .

[143] Naught from the world took Jamshld ,save the world - viewing cup ;
Ho on worldly chattels ,bind not thy heart .

[144] Darvish and beggar ,I am yet ,equal ,I make not
The ragged felt darvish cap to a hundred splendid khusravl crowns .

[145] To his son ,the years endured old villager spake how well ,
Saying : O light of my eye save that sown ,thou reapest naught .

[146] Man's house with the glance ,thy eye hath darkened
Thine ,be no wine - sickness For ,intoxicated ,happy thou goest .

[147] This tale of wonder of inverted fortune ,hear
Us ,the beloved ,with the revivifying breath of ' sa ,slew .

[148] To the slave's verse ,wine drink .Thine ,be no heart - straitedness
On the head of worldly chattels ,be dust after thee .

[149] Perchance ,more than his due Hafiz's allowance of wine the Saki gave ,
That disarranged became the Maulavi's turban - tassel .

[150] O thou void of news of love strive that the master of news ,thou mayst be
So long as way - farer thou art not ,road - guide how is it that thou mayst be

[151] In the school of truths and of ma'rifat before love's master the murshid ,perfect and excellent
Ho O son strive that ,one day worthy to be father old thou mayst be .

[152] Far from love's degree ,thee ,sleeping and eating put
To love ,thou attainest at that time when sleepless and foodless thou shalt be .

[153] When ,on thy heart and soul ,the light of God's love falleth ,
By God I swear that fairer than the sky's resplendent sun thou shalt be .

[154] From the copper of thy existence ,like men of the Path tarikat thy hand wash ,
So that love's alchemy ,thou mayst obtain and gold thou mayst be .

[155] From head to foot ,thine all God's light shall be ,
When footless and headless the world's chattels and ease abandoned in the Path of Him possessed of majesty ,thou shalt be .

[156] A moment ,immersed in God's sea ,be think not ,
That ,to the extent of a single hair ,with the water of seven all the seas of the world wet ,thou shalt be .

[157] If the face of God be the spectacle - place of thy vision
After this ,not a doubt remaineth that the possessor of vision ,thou shalt be .

[158] It ,below and above ruined the foundation of thy existence be ,
Think not in thy heart that ,below and above ,thou mayst be .

[159] Hafiz if in thy head be desire of union with the true Beloved
It is necessary that the dust of the court of Him possessed of vision ,thou shouldest be .

[160] In the morning ,the invisible speaker of the wine - house with fortune - wishing ,
Said O Hafiz come back for an old friend of this court thou art .

[161] Like Jamshld ,a draught of wine ,drink ,so that ,of the mystery of the angels ,
Thee ,the ray of the cup ,world - viewing ,may give news .

[162] At the wine - house door ,are Kalandar - profligates ,
Who take away and give the imperial diadem .

[163] Beneath the head ,the brick and the foot on the summit of the seven stars Pleiades
Behold the hand of power and the dignity of one possessed of dignity

[164] Together are our head and the door of the wine - house ,the side of the vault whereof
Is uplifted to the sky ,though the wall be of this lowliness .

[165] O traveller of the Path to the beggars of the wine - house door ,
Courteous be if ,acquainted with the mysteries of God ,thou be .

[166] O heart if thee ,the kingdom of poverty ,they give ,
Thy least territory will be from the moon above to the fish beneath supporting the earth

[167] Without the road - fellowship of Khizr ,this path travel not
'Tis the zulmat fear the danger of road - losing .

[168] The door of poverty ,thou knowest not how to beat .From the hand ,let not go ,
The seat of Lordship ,and the royal assembly of TQran .

[169] O Sikandar patiently sit useless grief ,suffer not
For ,thee ,the water of life ,they give not even on account of sovereignty .

[170] Hafiz ,crude of greed of this tale ,have shame
What is thy work ,reward for which two worlds thou desirest

[171] O them ,in whose face are revealed the splendours of sovereignty ;
And ,in whose thought ,are concealed divine philosophies

[172] In the country of faith ,thy reed it ,may God bless
A hundred fountains of the limpid water of life from a small ink - drop opened .

[173] On Ahriman ,shine not the splendours of the ism - i - a'zam ,
Thine ,is the country and the seal - ring .What thou wishest ,order .

[174] Doubt in Sulaiman's pomp ,whoever displayeth ,
On his wisdom and knowledge ,even the bird and the fish will in mockery laugh .

[175] Though ,sometimes ,on his head ,the cap of sovereignty ,the hawk putteth ,
The usage of sovereignty ,the birds of the mountain of Kaf well know .

[176] That sword ,to which ,out of its own bounty ,the sky giveth lustre ,
Alone ,without the aid of an army ,will sever the world .

[177] In respect of the friend and of the enemy ,pleasantly writeth in the magic figure thy reed
The amulet ,life - increasing for the friend sorcery ,life - decreasing for the enemy

[178] O them ,whose elements are created of the alchemy of honour
And thou ,whose fortune is safe from the disaster of ruin

[179] If ,on quarry and mine ,a flash of thy sword fall ,
To the ruby ,red of face ,it giveth the hue of withered yellow grass .

[180] O King tis a life time since void of wine was my cup
Behold thereof from the slave ,a claim ; and ,from the muhtasib ,testimony

[181] The weakness of the night - sitters ,I know ,thy heart will pity
If ,of the breeze of the morning - time ,my state thou ask .

[182] Saki Murshid from the fountain of the tavern of ma'rifat a little water bring ,
So that ,from the wonder of the monastery pride of our own devotion the khirkas ,we may wash and ,in supplication and in submission to God ,engage

[183] In Adam's household ,as long as the way of sovereignty was ,
Like thee ,none hath known this science of sovereignty as it is .

[184] Cometh not violence from the cruel sky so long as angel of quality thou art
Oppression on me departed from the world ,sinee world - shelter thou art .

[185] When ,on the sin of pure Adam ,lightning flashed ,
Us ,the claim to sinlessness how adorneth befitteth

[186] O asylum of created beings O bestower of gifts
On poor me whom calamities have visited mercy show

[187] Hafiz since ,sometimes ,thy name the King taketh mentioneth
To him ,grief on account of fortune display not in pardon - seeking ,come back .

[188] Not ,in all the cloisters of the magians ,is like me a distraught one
In one place ,the khirka my existence is the pledge for wine the book the heart in another place .

[189] The heart ,which is a royal mirror ,hath by worldly affairs and by the dross of sin a great dust ,the prohibitor of divine bounty
From God ,I seek the society of one ,luminous of opinion .

[190] From my eye to the skirt ,I have established streams of tears so that ,per .chance ,
In my bosom ,they may place one ,straight of stature .

[191] The bark shaped cup ,bring for ,without the Beloved's face ,
From the heart's grief ,every corner of the eye hath become a great ocean of tears

[192] By the hand of an idol ,wine - selling ,repentance I have made
That again ,wine I drink not without the face of a banquet - adorner .

[193] The mystery of this subtlety ,perchance ,the candle will bring to its tongue
If not ,for speech ,the moth hath not even a little solicitude .

[194] To me ,mistress - worshipping ,speak not of aught beside
For ,beyond her and the cup of wine ,for none is mine ,even a little solicitude .

[195] If of the way of its beauteous eye ,the narcissus boasted ,grieve not for ,vision ,it hath not
The man of vision goeth not in pursuit of a non - see - er .

[196] How pleasantly to me came this tale when in the morning time ,said ,
At the door of the wine - house ,with drum and reed ,a Christian

[197] If the being a musulman be of this sort that Hafiz is ,
Alas ,if ,after to - day ,be a to - morrow .

[198] In my eye ,the eye - brow of one moon of form ,I have made
The fancy of one fresh of down ,I have pictured a place .

[199] The hope is that the order of my love - play
May reach from that bow - eyebrow to the rank of a beautiful Tughra .

[200] From the hand ,went my head from expectation ,my eye consumed
In desire of the head and of the eye of an assembly - adorner .

[201] In that place where ,with a glance ,the lovely ones strike the sword ,
Wonder not ,at a head which ,hath fallen severed at a foot .

[202] From separation perturbed is my heart ; fire to the khirka ,I will set and ,from this ,escape
Come ,come for ,glorious ,it will make a spectacle .

[203] Since ,from His the true Beloved's face the effulgent moon in the bedchamber is mine ,
For the twinkling of the star the illusory beloved where is even a little solicitude

[204] My heart's rein I ,the darvlsh ,have given to that one God
To whom ,for any one's crown ,or throne ,is not even a little solicitude .

[205] Separation or union what martereth it The Friend's will ,seek
For ,from Him ,aught beside union with Him ,vain is a wish .

[206] In the day of events of death make ye our coffin of the lofty cypress ,
For ,we go with the mark of a lofty one .

[207] For scattering on Hafiz through exceeding desire the fishers bring forth pearls ,
If Hafiz's bark should reach a sea .

[208] A salutation ,like the pleasant perfume of friendship ,
To that man of the eye of light

[209] A salutation ,like the light of the heart of the pious
To that candle of the khilvat - place of piety .

[210] None of my fellow - companions in his place ,I see
With grief ,my heart is become blood .Saki the murshid where art thou

[211] The wine ,sufl - overthrowing ,they sell where
For ,in torment ,I am from the hand of austerity of hypocrisy .

[212] The covenant of society ,the companions have so shattered ,
That thou mayst say Verily ,hath not been friendship .

[213] Thy face ,away from the street of the magians ,turn not .For ,there ,
They sell the key of the opening of difficulty .

[214] Although within limit ,the bride of the world hath beauty ,
Beyond limit ,she taketh the way of unfaithfulness .

[215] My shattered heart if it's be a desire ,
Desireth not ,from those stone of heart ,a mumiya .i .

[216] Thee ,the chemistry of happiness ,I will teach
From bad fellowship ,separation ,separation

[217] O lust of greed if thou leave me ,
Great sovereignty contentment I will make in beggary .

[218] Hafiz of time's violence ,complain not
O slave what knowest thou divine work

[219] O king of the lovely the beloved ones of the world for grief of being alone ,justice
Without Thee ,to the soul ,my heart hath come .Tis the time when thou shouldst come back ; and me safety ,give

[220] Me ,so far from Thee desirousness and farness made ,
That ,from the hand ,will depart the power of patience .

[221] O Beloved the pain of love for Thee is my remedy on the couch of unfulfilled desire
And O Beloved Thy memory ,my consoler in the corner of solitude .

[222] In the compass of our fate ,the point of the compass ,are we
The favour is whatever Thou thinkest the order ,whatever Thou orderest .

[223] In the world of profligacy of being a lover of God is neither thought of self ,nor opinion of self :
In this religious order ,Kufr is self - seeing and self - opinioning .

[224] O Lord to whom is it fit to utter this subtlety that ,in the world ,
That lovely one of every place the true Beloved His face displayed not .

[225] Last night ,to the morning breeze ,complaint of His tress ,I uttered
The breeze said A mistake This thy distraught thought ,abandon of Him complain not ; whatever He wisheth ,He doeth

[226] Here with the chain of His tress a hundred morning breezes keep dancing
O heart so long as thou measurest not the wind a thing impossible to do this is thy companion .

[227] Saki not a colour of decoration hath the sward of the rose without thy face ;
Moving make thy box - tree stature so that the garden thou mayst adorn .

[228] O Beloved ever joyous ,remaineth not the rose of this garden of the world .
At the time of powerfulness perfection of beauty the feeble ones aid and their state ,pity

[229] On account of this blue circle the sky bloody of liver I am give wine
So that ,in the enamel - cup ,this difficulty I may solve .

[230] Hafiz departed hath the night of separation come hath the sweet fragrance of morn
O lover of distraughtness auspicious be thy gladness .

[231] O heart if ,from that pit of the chin of the true Beloved thou comest forth ,
Everywhere that thou goest ,quickly regretful ,thou comest forth .

[232] It is possible that even with a little water thee ,the sky may not aid
If ,thirsty of lip ,and hopeless from the fountain of life thou comest forth .

[233] Sense keep for if lust's temptation thou heed ,
From the garden of Rizvan ,like Adam ,thou comest forth .

[234] In desire of seeing thee ,like the radiant morning ,my soul I surrender ;
Possibly ,like the gleaming sun ,thou mayest come forth .

[235] Like the breeze ,on thee ,the breath of blessing I send to such a degree
That ,from the rose - bud ,like the rose ,joyous and laughing thou comest forth .

[236] In the dark night of separation from thee ,to the lip ready to depart came my soul
'Tis the time when like the shining moon ,thou comest forth .

[237] From my two eyes ,on the dust of thy door ,I have established a hundred streams
It may be that ,like the moving cypress thou mayest come forth .

[238] In the house of grief and of reproach ,how long sittest thou
'Tis time that ,by the Sultan's fortune ,thou shouldst come forth .

[239] Hafiz think not that that Yusuf ,moon of face the Beloved
Again cometh to thee and that ,from the hut of sorrow ,thou comest forth .

[240] Wine ,demand rose - scattering ,make from time ,what seekest thou
Thus ,at morn ,to the bulbul spake the rose .What sayest thou

[241] To the rose - garden ,the cushion take so that of the lovely one and of the Saki ,
The lip ,thou mayst take ,and the cheek ,kiss so that wine thou mayst drink and the rose ,smell .

[242] Let us see ,in whose fortune will be thy laughing rose - bud
O bough of the rose ra'na for whose sake ,growest thou

[243] O beloved the box - tree of thy stature proudly move ; and ,the resolution of sauntering in the garden ,make
So that ,from thy stature ,the lofty ,straight cypress may learn heart - seeking .

[244] To - day ,when full of tumult of the purchaser is thy market ,
Get ,and establish a little road - provision out of the capital of goodness .

[245] As ,in the thoroughfare of the breeze ,is the flaming candle ,so is thy good going 'tis profitless
A little profit of skill ,derive out of the capital of goodness .

[246] That tress ,every ringlet whereof is worth a hundred musk - pods of Chin ,
Happy had it been if had been its perfume from happy disposition

[247] In the king's rose - bed ,cometh every bird singing
The bulbul to melody - making ; Hafiz to prayer - uttering .

[1] Es sey gedanket Gott dem Herrn, Daß billig ist der Fürst; Sultan Ahmed, der Sohn Oweisens, Hasans, des Ilchaniden.

[2] Ein Chan der Chane, und ein Fürst Der Fürsten von Geburt, Der es verdienet, daß du ihn Die Weltenseele nennst.

[3] Das Auge hat zwar nichts geseh'n, Blind glaubt es deinem Glück. Sey mir willkommen, sey willkomm, Du, Gottes Gnaden werth!

[4] Und gehet ohne dein Gebet, Der Mond am Himmel auf, Du schneidest ihn entzwei, wie einst Ahmed durch's Wunderwerk.

[6] Du kräusle deine Locken auf, Wie sie der Thürke kräus't, Denn du vereinst den hohen Muth, Das Glück von Dschengischan.

[7] Ich trinke weit von dir entfernt, Dir zur Gesundheit Wein, Denn auf dem Weg der Geister giebt's Sonst keine Station.

[8] Die Rose Farsistans entblüht Für mein Vergnügen nicht. Wie schön ist nicht des Tigris Fluth, Und durchgewürzter Wein.

[9] Wie kann sich ein verliebtes Haupt, Dem's an des Liebchens Thür Als Staub zu bleiben nicht gefällt, Sich retten vor dem Gram!

[10] O Morgenwind! bring' mir den Staub Von meinem Freunde zu, Womit Hafis erleuchten wird Des Auges dunkle Nacht.

In thy glances ,the solving of my work ,He established .

[2] In the dust of the Path ,me and the cypress of the sward ,it time planted ,
Since ,a garment of fine nargasin cloth for thee ,time established .

[3] From our work ,and from the heart of the rose - bud ,a hundred knots of difficulties it the breeze of the rose loosed ,
When ,in desire of thee ,its own heart the breeze of the rose established .

[4] With Thy bond ,the sphere's revolution made me content
But ,what profit ,when ,the end of the thread in Thy will ,it the sphere's revolution established .

[5] On my wretched heart ,cast not a knot like the twisted musk - pod .
For ,with Thy tress ,knot - loosening ,a covenant it my heart established .

[6] Breeze of union thou thyself wast another life like life without fidelity
Behold my heart's fault that ,hope in fidelity to Thee ,my heart established .

[7] O beloved I said On account of thy violence ,I shall depart from the city
Laughing ,the beloved spake saying Hafiz go .Thy foot ,of dwelling here who established

[1] Gott hat deiner Augenbrauen Schöne Formen gebunden, Er hat meines Lebens Freude An dein Lächeln gebunden.

[2] Er hat mich und die Cypreße In die Erde gesenket, Seit er den Narzißenstiel nach Deinem Wuchse gebunden.

[3] Hundert Herzensrosen werden Durch den Ostwind eröffnet, Die durch Sehnsucht verbunden.

[4] Deine Banden trag' ich, und der Himmel ist es zufrieden, Doch umsonst! der Faden ist an Deinen Willen gebunden.

[5] O zerdrück' mein armes Herz nicht, Wie den Beutel des Moschus, Denn es ist mit deinen Locken Kraft Verträgen verbunden.

[6] Ach du schenkest auch andern Leben, Zarter Hauch des Genusses, Sieh den Irrthum, sieh ich glaubte Mich an Treue gebunden.

[7] Deiner Strenge müde sprach ich: Aus der Stadt will ich fliehen, Flieh Hafis, so sprachst du lächelnd, Flieh, dein Fuß ist gebunden.

German Translation

[1] دوش رفتم به در میکده خواب آلوده
خرقه تردامن و سجاده شراب آلوده

[2] آمد افسوس کنان مغبچه باده فروش
گفت بیدار شو ای ره رو خواب آلوده

[3] شست و شویی کن و آن گه به خرابات خرام
تا نگردد ز تو این دیر خراب آلوده

[4] به هوای لب شیرین پسران چند کنی
جوهر روح به یاقوت مذاب آلوده

[5] به طهارت گذران منزل پیری و مکن
خلعت شیب چو تشریف شباب آلوده

[6] پاک و صافی شو و از چاه طبیعت به درآی
که صفایی ندهد آب تراب آلوده

[7] گفتم ای جان جهان دفتر گل عیبی نیست
که شود فصل بهار از می ناب آلوده

[8] آشنایان ره عشق در این بحر عمیق
غرقه گشتند و نگشتند به آب آلوده

[9] گفت حافظ لغز و نکته به یاران مفروش
آه از این لطف به انواع عتاب آلوده

[1] Last night ,to the door of the wine - house ,I went ,sleep stained
The khirka wet of skirt ,and the prayer - mat ,wine stained

[2] The magian boy of the wine - seller ,cry - making ,came
He said Awake ,O wayfarer ,sleep stained .

[3] Washing and washing ,do then ,to the tavern ,proudly move
So that ,by thee ,this ruined cloister become not' stained

[4] In desire for those sweet of mouth beloved ones how long makest thou
The jewel of thy soul with the melted ruby the bloody tear stained

[5] In purity ,pass the stage of old age and make not ,
The honour - robe of old age ,with the splendid dress of youth ,stained .

[6] Pure and clean ,be and ,from nature's well ,come forth
Giveth not purity water ,earth stained .

[7] I said O soul of the world not a defect is it ,the rose - book
If ,in the spring season ,it become with pure ruddy wine bestained .

[8] In this deep sea of love those acquainted with love's path ,
Were drowned and were not with water stained .

[9] He said : Hafiz to friends ,thy jest and subtlety boast not ;
Alas for this thy grace ,with varied forms of reproach bestained .

[1] Ich gieng zur Schenke gestern, Vom Schlafe ganz befleckt, Befeuchtet war die Kutte, Der Teppich ganz befleckt.

[2] Es kam ein Schenkenknäblein Und sagte mir mit Spott: Es ist schon Zeit: Erwache O du vom Schlaf befleckt!

[3] Vor allem andern wasch' dich, Dann komm' zur Thür' herein, Es würde ja die Schenke Von dir sonst auch befleckt.

[4] Wie lang wird noch aus Sehnsucht Nach einem süßen Mund Mit flüssigem Rubine Der reine Geist befleckt?

[5] Geh', wo die Alten wohnen, Mit Reinigkeit vorbei, Das Kleid des Alters werde Von Jungen nicht befleckt.

[6] Sey rein, steig' in die Höhe, Vom Brunnen der Natur, Denn nimmer schmeckt das Wasser Als rein, das Staub befleckt.

[7] Ich sprach zu meinem Liebchen: Ist es nicht Schand' und Spott, Daß in den Lenz die Rose Sich so mit Wein befleckt?

[8] Erfahrene der Liebe Sind zwar in diesem Meer Hinab zum Grund gefahren, Und wurden nicht befleckt.

[9] Sie sprach: Hafis, die Räthsel Verkauf' den Freunden nicht! O Schade! dieser Milde Mit solchem Grimm befleckt.

German Translation

[1] بخت از دهان دوست نشانم نمی‌دهد
دولت خبر ز راز نهانم نمی‌دهد

[2] از بهر بوسه‌ای ز لبش جان همی‌دهم
اینم همی‌ستاند و آنم نمی‌دهد

[3] مردم در این فراق و در آن پرده راه نیست
یا هست و پرده دار نشانم نمی‌دهد

[4] زلفش کشید باد صبا چرخ سفله بین
کان جا مجال بادوزانم نمی‌دهد

[5] چندان که بر کنار چو پرگار می‌شدم
دوران چو نقطه ره به میانم نمی‌دهد

[6] شکر به صبر دست دهد عاقبت ولی
بدعهدی زمانه زمانم نمی‌دهد

[7] گفتم روم به خواب و ببینم جمال دوست
حافظ ز آه و ناله امانم نمی‌دهد

[1] Trace of the true Beloved's mouth ,fortune giveth me not .
News of the hidden mystery ,fortune giveth me not .

[2] For a kiss from His lip ,I surrender my life
This my life He taketh not ; and that the kiss He giveth me not .

[3] With desire ,I died and ,within this screen of divine knowledge is no path
Or path there is and its trace ,the screen - holder the murshid giveth me not .

[4] The morning - breeze drew His tress .Behold the mean sphere
In that ,there ,the power of the whirling wind to draw His tress it the sphere giveth me not .

[5] As much as on the border ,compass - like ,I go ,
The path to the centre ,Time like a point giveth me not .

[6] In the end ,by patience ,sugar of ease appeareth .But ,
Safety ,the bad - faithlessness of Time giveth me not .

[7] To myself I said To sleep ,I will go and behold in a dream the beauty of the true Beloved
But ,with sighing and wailing ,sleep ,Hafiz giveth me not .

[1] Das Glück giebt mir vom Wind Des Freund's das Zeichen nicht, Das Schicksal spendet mir, Des Haar's Geheimniß nicht.

[2] Ich gab für einen Kuß Des Munds die Seele hin, Die Seele nimmt er nicht, Den Kuß, den giebt er nicht.

[3] Ich bin aus Sehnsucht todt, Zum Schleier führt kein Weg, Und führt ein Weg, so giebt Man mir das Zeichen nicht.

[4] Der Wind durchwühlt sein Haar, O niederträcht'ges Loos! Es giebt mir nicht die Kraft, Dem Winde gleich zu weh'n.

[5] Wie sehr ich auch den Rand In Zirkelform umgeh', So giebt mir doch das Loos Den Punkt zum Durchgang nicht.

[6] Der Dank wird endlich doch Geärntet durch Geduld, Die Zeit, die noth ist, nicht.

[7] Ich sprach: ich geh' in's Bett, Den Freund im Schlaf zu seh'n, Allein Hafisens Ach! Und Weh! giebt Ruhe nicht.
