Toggle stanza 1به عزمِ توبه سحر گفتم استخاره کُنم
In the morning, with the desire of repentance (to my heart), I said : " I seek the counsel of God," Spring, repentance-shatterer, arriveth : what remedy may I make ?
True speech, I utter: I cannot see (that this state is very difficult); For the companions drink wine ; and looking on I make.
To the memory of the King's assembly, like the rose-bud with laughing lip, The cup, I take : and, through desire, my raiment, rent I make.
By the cup's circulation, remedy ye my brain : If, from the midst of the banquet of joy, retirement I make.
Through the Friend's face, blossomed my purpose like the rose : To the hard stone, consignment of the enemy's head (that separation recur not) I make.
The tavern-beggar am I ; but (at) the time of intoxication, behold : Against the (lofty) sky, loftiness; and against the (ordering) star, order, I make ?
Not mine, is the way and usage of morsel-abstaining. For, The reprobation of the profligate, the wine-drinker, why do . I make ?
On the throne of the rose, I place a (beauteous) idol like a Sultan : With the hyacinth, and the lily, the glory of collar and of bracelet I make.
Through wine-drinking, distressed became Hafiz; With the sound of the harp and with wine, his mystery (of distress), evident I make.
