Ghazal 60

آن پیک نامور که رسید از دیار دوست
آورد حرز جان ز خط مشکبار دوست

خوش می‌دهد نشان جلال و جمال یار
خوش می‌کند حکایت عز و وقار دوست

دل دادمش به مژده و خجلت همی‌برم
زین نقد قلب خویش که کردم نثار دوست

شکر خدا که از مدد بخت کارساز
بر حسب آرزوست همه کار و بار دوست

سیر سپهر و دور قمر را چه اختیار؟
در گردشند بر حسب اختیار دوست

گر باد فتنه هر دو جهان را به هم زند
ما و چراغ چشم و ره انتظار دوست

کحل الجواهری به من آر ای نسیم صبح
زان خاک نیکبخت که شد رهگذار دوست

ماییم و آستانهٔ عشق و سر نیاز
تا خواب خوش که را برد اندر کنار دوست

دشمن به قصد حافظ اگر دم زند چه باک؟
منت خدای را که نیم شرمسار دوست

That renowned courier who arrived from the friend's country
brought an amulet for the soul in the friend's musk-scented writing.

Sweetly he gives signs of the beloved's majesty and beauty;
sweetly he tells the story of the friend's honour and dignity.

I gave him my heart for the good news, and I am ashamed
of this false coin of mine that I scattered for the friend.

Thanks be to God that, by the help of fortune that sets things right,
all the friend's affairs are just as one would wish.

What choice have the course of the sky and the round of the moon?
They turn according to the choice of the friend.

If the wind of discord should knock both worlds together,
we and the lamp of our eye will keep to the road of waiting for the friend.

Bring me a jewel-like kohl, O breeze of morning,
from that fortunate dust that became the friend's path.

Here we are, with the threshold of love and a head bowed in need;
let us see whom sweet sleep will carry into the friend's embrace.

If the enemy speaks out against Hafez, what fear?
Thanks be to God that I am not ashamed before the friend.
