From the Divan of Hafez · 5 couplets
...
Our pain has no remedy — help!
Our separation has no end — help!
They have taken faith and heart, and now aim for the soul —
help! From the cruelty of beauties — help!
For the price of a single kiss they ask a life —
these heart-stealers demand it — help!
These infidel-hearted ones have drunk our blood —
O Muslims, what is the remedy? Help!
Like Hafez, day and night, beside myself,
I have become burning and weeping — help!
دردِ ما را نیست درمان الغیاث
هجرِ ما را نیست پایان الغیاث
دین و دل بردند و قَصدِ جان کنند
الغیاث از جورِ خوبان، الغیاث
در بهایِ بوسهای جانی طلب
میکنند این دلسِتانان الغیاث
خونِ ما خوردند این کافَردلان
ای مسلمانان چه درمان؟ الغیاث
همچو حافظ روز و شب بیخویشتن
گَشتهام سوزان و گریان الغیاث
