Light
Thy beauty in eternity
Flashed out in sudden brilliancy
Love into reveletion came
And set the nuiverse aflame.
Thy face revealed the angel viewed,
Who being with no love endued,
Converted all to jealous fire
And smote at adam in its ire.
Reason intended at that light
Its borrowed lampto kindle bright;
The thunderflash of jealousy
Shatterd a world at rivalry.
When the pretender sought to tread
Where mysteries are all displayd,
The hidden hand made made manifeast
Smote uponhis unhallowed breast.
Fate was preparing lots for man,
and others cast for pleasure then;
With hearts og sorrow I and you
Waited our turn, and sorrowdrew.
The higher soul desired to win
peace in the entangled in thy hair,
Was held inextricbly there.
That day did Hafez in delight
His note of love to thee indite
When from his heart he did erase
Of morta pleasure evry trace.
Flashed out in sudden brilliancy
Love into reveletion came
And set the nuiverse aflame.
Thy face revealed the angel viewed,
Who being with no love endued,
Converted all to jealous fire
And smote at adam in its ire.
Reason intended at that light
Its borrowed lampto kindle bright;
The thunderflash of jealousy
Shatterd a world at rivalry.
When the pretender sought to tread
Where mysteries are all displayd,
The hidden hand made made manifeast
Smote uponhis unhallowed breast.
Fate was preparing lots for man,
and others cast for pleasure then;
With hearts og sorrow I and you
Waited our turn, and sorrowdrew.
The higher soul desired to win
peace in the entangled in thy hair,
Was held inextricbly there.
That day did Hafez in delight
His note of love to thee indite
When from his heart he did erase
Of morta pleasure evry trace.
