He who did of rose and wild rose On thy cheek the hue bestow |
|
|
The Huma of fairest fortune Into our snare befalleth |
|
|
Cell-sitter Hafiz yestr'even The winehouse's guest's become |
|
|
The Bride of the rose is come Again to the Feast of Spring |
|
|
At dawntide, intent on repentance, "For guidance," quoth I, "I'll sue" |
|
|
If ever it be vouchsafed me The hand in thy tress to twine |
|
|
Bring, wind of the East, an thou chance By the country to fare of the Friend |
|
|
Blest may the coming of the Feast, Cupbearer, be for thee |
|
|
'Twas a bulbul drank his heart's blook And a rose his own made |
|
|
What while there of wine and winehouse Name and trace shall still be |
|
