The day of sorrow is ending

برید باد صبا دوشم آگهی آورد

Last night the courier of the east wind brought me word

که روز محنت و غم رو به کوتهی آورد

that the day of hardship and sorrow has turned towards its end.

به مطربان صبوحی دهیم جامه چاک

To the minstrels of the morning draught we will give our torn robes

بدین نوید که باد سحرگهی آورد

for this good news the dawn wind has brought.

بیا بیا که تو حور بهشت را رضوان

Come, come, for you are the houri of paradise whom Rizvan

در این جهان ز برای دل رهی آورد

has brought into this world for your servant's heart.

همی‌رویم به شیراز با عنایت دوست

We are going to Shiraz with the Friend's favour;

زهی رفیق که بختم به همرهی آورد

what a companion my fortune has brought along with me!

به جبر خاطر ما کوش کـ‌این کلاه نمد

Strive to mend our hearts, for this felt cap

بسا شکست که با افسر شهی آورد

has often brought ruin to the royal crown.

چه ناله‌ها که رسید از دلم به خرمن ماه

What laments rose from my heart to the moon's halo

چو یاد عارض آن ماه خرگهی آورد

when it brought back the memory of that moon in the tent.

رساند رایت منصور بر فلک حافظ

Hafez raised the victorious banner to the sky

که التجا به جناب شهنشهی آورد

once he took refuge at the court of the king of kings.
