But we couldn’t advantaged of your face sun

With your sweet words and look,

Under the flower’s light and moonlight’s dress,

We torn the heart’s dress till the morning

From the curves of your black hairs,

Although our hands didn’t achieved you, but we continued

Ho, cryptic treasury! Hafezian! God fearing self,

We heard your munificence verses by friend

You became as a Theism Symbol* in your life,

We heard “La Ilaha Illa Allah” from your lips

We sat in your “Class of Secrets”*, delightful

Ran following with you while mentioned “La Hola”

Until, your Purpose Kaaba”* became “Paramour Place”*

We cropped of your Theosophy while we said you “Labbaik”

From your “Secret’s Fountain”* and “Light’s Dawn”*

We got drunk and left both worlds

In your pure scent tavern at the whole time,

When we chose privacy, we went out of heartache

You are the night’s name and love’s key

Open your kindness door because we are hopeful

Ho, renowned Yusuf! Because we loved you,

We became famous in this land

We drunk a sip of your love tavern,

And we were alive of your sanctum breath

Firouzeh, we never see anything like your Lohe Mahfouz,

Across the world
