Sweet Melody Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBCCDDEEFFAA GCome so the rose we may spread and let wine into the goblet flow | A |
The roof of the sky we may cleave and a new way seek more aglow | A |
If an army the shedder of lovers' blood raise sorrow | A |
The Saki and I may join and its foundation pull thorough | A |
The rose water we pour into the goblet of ruddy wine | B |
Into the censer of the wind the sugar and perfume we cast in twine | B |
Minstrel In thy hand resteth a merry instrument a sweet melody play | C |
So we may sing a love song and dance to the merry note sans delay | C |
O breeze To the abode of the Beloved the soul of ours take | D |
That the Monarch of the lovely mayest deign our glance's sake | D |
Of reason one boasteth another idle talk doth weave | E |
Come and to the just Umpire these disputes leave | E |
Come with us to the tavern if the Garden of Eden thou pine for | F |
So thee we may cast at once into the pool of abundance galore | F |
In Shiraz the verse and eloquence they do not know | A |
HAFIZ Come so to another Land we may go | A |
