No.41 Hafez Shirazi
persian poetry with translation:
THOUGH WINE IS PLEASURABLE, AND THOUGH THE BREEZE
Seems soaked in roses. see your harp
Is silent when you drink- because the ears
'morals officers are sharp!
If you can find a wine jug and a friend,
Drink sensibly, and with discretion,
Because the dreadful days we're living through
Are rife with mischief, and oppression.
Sec that you hide your wine-cup in your sleeve;
Your jug's lip sheds its wine, blood-red
And, in the same way, these cruel times ensure
Red blood is copiously shed.
We'd better wash away the wine stains from
Our cloaks with tears of penitence -
Now is the season for sobriety,
For days of pious abstinence.
The heavens have become a sieve that strains
Upon us blood, and it is full
Of bloody scraps like royal Khosrow's crown,
Together with King Kasra's skull.
Don't think that as the heavens turn they'll bring
A trace of solace or relief;
Their hurtful curvature is through and through
Made up of wretchedness and grief
Pars knows the splendor of your verse, Hafez
It's made the towns of Eraq glad;
So now's the time to try it out elsewhere
Tabriz, perhaps, and then Baghdad.

اگر چه باده فرح بخش و باد گل‌بیز است
به بانگ چنگ مخور می که محتسب تیز است
صراحی‌ای و حریفی گرت به چنگ افتد
به عقل نوش که ایام فتنه انگیز است
در آستین مرقع پیاله پنهان کن
که همچو چشم صراحی زمانه خونریز است
به آب دیده بشوییم خرقه‌ها از می
که موسم ورع و روزگار پرهیز است
مجوی عیش خوش از دور باژگون سپهر
که صاف این سر خم جمله دُردی آمیز است
سپهرِ بر شده پرویزنی‌ست خون افشان
که ریزه‌اش سر کسری و تاجِ پرویز است
عراق و فارس گرفتی به شعر خوش حافظ
بیا که نوبت بغداد و وقت تبریز است
