مطلب طاعت و پیمان و صلاح از من مست
1
مطلب طاعت و پیمان و صلاح از من مست
که به پیمانه‌کشی شهره شدم روز الست

From me intoxicated, is the desire of devotion and of covenant, and of rectitude; For, in Eternity without beginning, I became renowned for wine-drinking.

2
من همان دم که وضو ساختم از چشمهٔ عشق
چار تکبیر زدم یکسره بر هرچه که هست

The every moment when, with the fountain of Love, I performed ablution, I expressed completely on all that is, four Laudations, Allah Akbar!

3
می بده تا دهمت آگهی از سِرّ قضا
که به روی که شدم عاشق و از بوی که مست

Give wine that I may give thee news of the mystery of Fate: By whose face, I became a Lover; and by whose perfume, intoxicated.

4
کمر کوه کم است از کمر مور اینجا
ناامید از در رحمت مشو ای باده‌پرست

Here, less than the ants’ waist is the waist of the mountain: O wine-worshipper! Be not hopeless of the door of God’s mercy.

5
بجز آن نرگس مستانه که چشمش مرساد
زیر این طارم فیروزه کسی خوش ننشست

Save that intoxicated eye the eye reach him not! None state happy beneath this turquoise vault.

6
جان فدای دهنش باد که در باغ نظر
چمن آرای جهان، خوشتر از این غنچه نبست

Be my soul the ransom of Thy mouth! For, in the garden of vision, The Parterre-arrayer of the World established no rose-bud more sweet than this rose-bud.

7
حافظ از دولت عشق تو سلیمانی شد
یعنی از وصل تواَش نیست بجز باد به دست

Through the fortune of Love for thee, Hafez became a Soleiman: That is Or Union with thee, he hath naught in hand save wind.
