BOOK OF HAFISA
-
Spirit let us bridegroom callB
-
And the word the brideC
Known this wedding is to allB
-
Who have Hafis triedC
-
THE UNLIMITEDD
-
That thou can't never end doth make thee greatE
And that thou ne'er beginnest is thy fateE
Thy song is changeful as yon starry frameF
End and beginning evermore the sameF
And what the middle bringeth but containsA
What was at first and what at last remainsA
Thou art of joy the true and minstrel sourceA
From thee pours wave on wave with ceaseless forceA
A mouth that's aye prepared to kissA
-
A breast whence flows a loving songG
A throat that finds no draught amissA
-
An open heart that knows no wrongG
-
And what though all the world should sinkH
-
Hafis with thee alone with theeI
-
Will I contend joy miseryI
-
The portion of us twain shall beI
Like thee to love like thee to drinkH
-
This be my pride this life to meI
-
Now Song with thine own fire be sungJ
For thou art older thou more youngJ
-
-
-
TO HAFISA
-
HAFIS straight to equal theeI
-
One would strive in vainK
Though a ship with majestyI
-
Cleaves the foaming mainK
Feels its sails swell haughtilyI
-
As it onward hiesA
Crush'd by ocean's stern decreeI
-
Wrecked it straightway liesA
Tow'rd thee songs light graceful freeI
-
Mount with cooling gushL
Then their glow consumeth meI
-
As like fire they rushL
Yet a thought with ecstasyI
-
Hath my courage movedM
In the land of melodyI
-
I have lived and lovedN

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
