faithful in your love....
"MY FEELING IN THE WORDS OF HAFIZ SHERAZI "
Faithful in your love, my fame has spread, candle-like At the home of the homeless, I make my bed, candle-like. Day and night, from sorrows, sleep escapes from my eyes Sick of being apart, my eyes are teary, red, candle-like. Scissors of sorrows have cut my patience' string Flame of your love burns upon my weary head, candle-like. If my bloody tears fail to bring color to my cheeks How else can my secret tales ever be said, candle-like? Amidst water & fire, my head is busy with your thoughts While my heart flooded with tears it needs to shed, candle-like. In the night of separation, send butterfly of union Else from your pain the world I'll burn & shred, candle-like. Without your beautiful vision, my day is night With the love I have bred, my flaws I dread, candle-like. My patience is eroding, like a mountain from sorrows' rains In the ocean of your love, path of fire I tread, candle-like. Like dawn, I blow one breath to see your face Show yourself O Beloved, else I'll be dead, candle-like. Honor me one night with your union, my friend Let your light, light up my house & spread, candle-like. Fire of your love caught on Hafiz's head When will my heart's fire, my tears wed, candle-like? |
