With the long chain of your curl

ای که با سلسله زلف دراز آمده‌ای

O you who have come with the long chain of your curl,

فرصتت باد که دیوانه‌نواز آمده‌ای

may your chance be good, for you have come to comfort the madman.

ساعتی ناز مفرما و بگردان عادت

For one hour do not be proud; change your habit,

چون به پرسیدن ارباب نیاز آمده‌ای

since you have come to ask after the needy.

پیش بالای تو میرم چه به صلح و چه به جنگ

I would die before your tall figure, in peace or in war,

چون به هر حال برازنده ناز آمده‌ای

since either way you were made to be proud.

آب و آتش به هم آمیخته‌ای از لب لعل

With your ruby lip you have mixed water and fire;

چشم بد دور که بس شعبده‌باز آمده‌ای

may the evil eye stay far, for you are a great conjurer.

آفرین بر دل نرم تو که از بهر ثواب

Bravo to your soft heart, that to earn some merit

کشته غمزه خود را به نماز آمده‌ای

you have come to pray over the one your glance has killed.

زهد من با تو چه سنجد که به یغمای دلم

What does my piety weigh against you, who, to plunder my heart,

مست و آشفته به خلوتگه راز آمده‌ای

have come drunk and dishevelled into the chamber of secrets?

گفت حافظ دگرت خرقه شراب آلوده‌ست

She said, "Hafez, your cloak is stained with wine again;

مگر از مذهب این طایفه باز آمده‌ای

have you turned back from the creed of this company?"
