Ghazal 494

اِی دِل! گَر از آن چاهِ زَنَخْدان به دَرآیی

هر جا که رَوی، زود، پَشیمان به دَرآیی

هُش دار که گَر وَسْوَسِهٔ عَقْل کُنی گوش

آدَم‌صِفَت از روضِهٔ رِضْوان به دَرآیی

شایَد که به آبی، فَلَکَت، دَسْت نَگیرد

گر تِشْنِه‌لَب از چَشْمِهٔ حِیوان به دَرآیی

جان می‌دَهم از حَسْرَتِ دیدارِ تو، چون صُبْح

باشَد که چو خورشید درخشان به دَرآیی

چَنْدان، چو صَبا بَر تو گُمارم دَمِ هِمَّت

کز غُنْچِه چو گُل، خُرَّم و خَنْدان به دَرآیی

در تیره‌شَبِ هِجْرِ تو، جانَم به لَب آمَد

وَقْت است که همچون مَهِ تابان به دَرآیی

بَر رَهْگُذَرَت بَسْتِه‌ام از دیده، دو صَد جوی

تا بو که تو چون سَرْوِ خُرامان به دَرآیی

حافِظ! مَکُن اَنْدیشِه که آن یوسُفِ مَه‌رو

بازآیَد و از کُلْبِهٔ اَحْزان به دَرآیی!

' Tis a long time; and the Heart-possessor (God) a message

sent not; A letter, wrote not; and a salutation, sent not.

A hundred letters, I sent; and that sovereign of horsemen A messenger hastened not; and a message sent not.

To me, like a wild beast, reason affrighted, One, deer of gait, partridge of strut (messenger), He (the heart-possessor) sent not.

He (the true Beloved) knew that (through separation from Him) the bird of my heart would

go from my hand (would die), Yet, of that chain-like hair, a snare, He sent not..5.

Complaint! that Saki (the true Beloved) sweet of lip, intoxicated, Knew that I was wine-sick

and a cup of wine, sent not.

As long as I boasted of excellences and of the stages (of divine

knowledge), To me, any news of any stage (of divine knowledge), He sent not.
