Ghazal 41 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABACABAAADAAA E

Though the wine is joyous and the wind flowers sortsA
Harp music and scent of wine the officer reportsA
If you face an adversary and a jug of wineB
Choose the wine because fate cheats and extortsA
Up your ragged patched sleeves hide keep your cupC
Like this flask of wine fate too bleeds and distortsA
With my teary eyes I cleanse my robe with wineB
Self restraint and piety is what everyone exhortsA
Seek not your joy in the turn of the firmamentsA
Even my filtered clear red fluid dregs sportsA
This earth and sky is no more than a bleeding sieveD
That sifts and sorts kingly crowns and courtsA
Hafiz your poems invaded Fars and Iraqi portsA
It is now the turn of Baghdad and Tabrizi fortsA
