See the difference between the path and the path to where my heart is from the monastery and where is the robe of Salus? Where is the monastery of the Maghān and the pure wine? What is the relation to the path of righteousness and piety? Where is the sermon? Where is the song of the lute? What does the heart of enemies understand from the face of a friend? Where is the dead lamp? Where is the candle of the sun? Where is the ink of our vision? The dust of your threshold is where we go? Tell me, where is this gentleman, who shows the apple of the thorn that the well is on the way? Where is the companionship, O heart, where is the haste that it may remember the happy time of its own reunion? Where has that charisma gone? And where is that reproach? Where is the destination and sleep of Hafez, O greedy friend? What is the destination and sleep? Where is patience and where is sleep? ---------------------- Hafez Ghazal #2 In this post Arash returns to Hafez to interpret Ghazal #2. We are officially a series 😁 checkout our Playlist on YouTube 🥳 In this poem we learn that Hafez preferred to live life on his own terms. Not one to take his religious studies or school seriously enough to worry about what others thought of him. By morning in religious school by evening in a bar and by midnight penning a poem or two about his Saghi. Imagine! Dude was a rebel for his time. Watch this video to understand what I mean. Do you agree? We'd love to hear your thoughts. Do leave us a comment.
