GIVE WINE
When you sit with the Beloved tasting the aged wine,
think of us lovers biting the wind of hard luck’s way.
Kindness and real beauty catch men who see the truth,
not for deceit and cages will wise birds come to stay.
The morning of Fortune dawns, where’s the cup like the sun?
Since that Moon has with soul purchased the pearls of Hafiz,
to ear of Venus reaches sound of ribbed lute’s melodic run.
Lord, what magic the wine container does that blood sticks
to the neck, although it makes a sweet-glugging fill the air.
What sound was that the singer made in the centre of song
that he keeps shouting truth to all who might like to hear?
Anyone who has never tried to love yet wants union, Hafiz,
would, without cleaning heart, the clothes of a pilgrim wear.
You said: "When will you die before Me?" Why hurry?
You entreat O so sweetly, but before You repeat: I die.
You said: "My ruby lip dispenses pain and sweet remedy."
Before pain came, and before Your remedy sweet: I die.
You sweetly sway: may the evil eyes never see Your face.
I find one thought in my mind: that at Your feet, I die.
Every one with insight, who for the heart content went,
to a corner of Winehouse from the house of intent went.
I laid my face on Your path but me You did not pass by;
I hoped for kindness, but no glance came from Your eye.
Candy mixed with rose juice will not cure our sick heart;
give kisses mixed with straight talking, it’s better that way.
Hafiz burns away for the cheek that is lit up by the Sun:
give one dying of thirst a quenching and come what may.
It is best that you hide your face from too many hearts:
joy of taking world, for army of lamentation is worthless.
Like Hafiz, don’t you worry, and let go the selfish world:
a ton of gold to buy miser’s consideration, is worthless.
Never, never separated your lip make from the cup’s lip;
so your desire from world, you take from the cup’s lip.
Since in the world’s cup sweet and bitter are combined,
take this from Beloved’s lip, that take from the cup’s lip.
A DROP OF BLOOD
SUCH CRUELTY
Neither the tale about that candle of Chigil one can tell,
nor condition of the heart, burning still, one can tell:
in my tired heart there is grief because there’s no friend
who about grief which the heart does fill, one can tell.
WITH GOLD
Those lovely ones of the world one can bait with gold,
because of them, happily one can’t enjoy fate with gold.
See the narcissus that possesses the crown of the world
how its head also bends, from being straight, with gold.
SOME CONSOLATION
LION OF GOD
You, Your eye: deceit and sorcery keep raining from it:
hey, many swords, war’s weaponry, keep raining from it.
Too quickly You became wearied and upset with friends;
Your heart: stones that do injury, keep raining from it.
STRANGE!
