Dervish laid a trap with slight of hands and trick of the eyes With the help of this trickster merry-go-round mystifies. Tricks of his fate will keep the rabbit in his hat How can you trick those whom to secrets are wise? Come hither wine-bearer, the Sufis beautiful lover Came with full grace, and evaded their many, many tries. O minstrel, with what tune was inspired to head for Iraq Longingly sang to return to the Arabian Hejaz? Come O heart, lets commend ourselves unto the Lord Keep from rolled up sleeve that outstretched arm belies. Undeceived, whoever lost himself in compassion In the Spirit of Love, his soul upward flies. In the court of the Truth, at the time of our demise Shame on he, who permissible never defies. Where to now, O proud partridge, halt and pause Your delusions, prayers of the pious cat, never ever identifies. Hafiz, mad Dervishes upon the path, dont criticize Freedom from false piety for eternity is our prize.~ Hafiz Shirazi
