Ghazal 152

در ازل پرتوِ حُسنت ز تجلی دَم زد

عشق پیدا شد و آتش به همه عالم زد

جلوه‌ای کرد رُخَت دید مَلَک عشق نداشت

عینِ آتش شد از این غیرت و بر آدم زد

عقل می‌خواست کز آن شعله چراغ افروزد

برق غیرت بدرخشید و جهان برهم زد

مدعی خواست که آید به تماشاگَهِ راز

دست غیب آمد و بر سینهٔ نامحرم زد

دیگران قرعهٔ قسمت همه بر عیش زدند

دل غمدیدهٔ ما بود که هم بر غم زد

جانِ عِلْوی هوسِ چاهِ زنخدان تو داشت

دست در حلقهٔ آن زلفِ خَم اندر خَم زد

حافظ آن روز طربنامهٔ عشق تو نوشت

که قلم بر سرِ اسبابِ دلِ خُرَّم زد

From the fire (of love) of my heart, my chest in grief for the Beloved——

consumed. In this house (of the heart), was (such) a fire, that the house consumed.

From the farness of the Heart-Ravisher, my body melted (waned)

From Love's fire for the Beloved's face, my soul consumed.

Whoever beheld the chain of the tress-tip of the one

of Par! face, Against me distraught, his heart distraught-stricken,— consumed.

Behold the heart's burning! For, from the great fire of my tears,

the candle's heart (wick), Last night, from Love's desire, like the moth, consumed. 5.

Strange it is not that the Friends are heart-consuming (for me)

When out of myself (distraught), I went, (even) the stranger's heart consumed.

The water of the tavern took my religious garment of austerity

My house of reason, the fire of the tavern — consumed. As the cup of my heart broke from the repentance that I made, (So) my liver, like a wine flagon, without wine and the tavern, consumed.

O Admonisher! make little talk; come back (and be not my prohibitor of love's Path). For, the man of

my eye Plucked, from off my head, the religious garment (of modesty); and, in thanks (for the acquisition of love),— consumed.
