Ghazal 116

کسی که حُسن و خَطِ دوست در نظر دارد

محقَق است که او حاصل بصر دارد

چو خامه در رهِ فرمانِ او، سرِ طاعت

نهاده‌ایم مگر او به تیغ بردارد

کسی به وصلِ تو چون شمع یافت پروانه

که زیرِ تیغِ تو هر دم سری دگر دارد

به پای‌بوس تو دستِ کسی رسید که او

چو آستانه بدین در، همیشه سر دارد

ز زهدِ خشک ملولم‌، کجاست بادهٔ ناب‌؟

که بویِ باده مدامم دماغ تر دارد

ز باده هیچت اگر نیست، این نه بس که تو را

دمی ز وسوسهٔ عقل بی‌خبر دارد؟

کسی که از رهِ تقوا قدم برون ننهاد

به عزمِ میکده اکنون رهِ سفر دارد

دل‌ِ شکستهٔ حافظ به خاک خواهد برد

چو لاله، داغ هوایی‌، که بر جگر دارد

To the dust (of the grave), Hafiz's shattered heart will take (with itself) The stain of desire
