Ghazal 107
حسن تو همیشه در فزون باد
رویت همه ساله لالهگون باد
اندر سر ما خیال عشقت
هر روز که باد در فزون باد
هر سرو که در چمن درآید
در خدمت قامتت نگون باد
چشمی که نه فتنهٔ تو باشد
چون گوهر اشک غرق خون باد
چشم تو ز بهر دلربایی
در کردن سحر ذوفنون باد
هر جا که دلیست در غم تو
بی صبر و قرار و بی سکون باد
قد همه دلبران عالم
پیش الف قدت چو نون باد
هر دل که ز عشق توست خالی
از حلقهٔ وصل تو برون باد
لعل تو که هست جان حافظ
دور از لب مردمان دون باد
May your beauty always be on the increase;
may your face be tulip-coloured all year long.
In our head the fancy of your love,
with every day that comes, may it be on the increase.
Every cypress that comes into the meadow,
may it bow down in service to your stature.
The eye that is not bewitched by you,
may it be drowned in blood like the pearl of a tear.
Your eye, for the stealing of hearts,
may it be master of every art in working magic.
Wherever there is a heart in grief for you,
may it be without patience, rest or calm.
The stature of all the heart-stealers of the world,
before the upright alif of your stature, may it be bent like the letter nun.
Every heart that is empty of love for you,
may it be outside the circle of union with you.
Your ruby lip, which is the soul of Hafez,
may it be far from the lips of base people.
Your affection grows by the day and you wish nothing but good for the one you love. This is a favourable fal: your attachment is lasting and deepening. Your only fear is that they might fall to someone unworthy. Hold them in your prayers and your kindness, and keep clear of jealousy.
