[Hafiz] FAITHFUL LOVER

FAITHFUL LOVER

The moon came to me last nightWith a sweet question.

She said,

“The sun has been my faithful loverFor millions of years.

Whenever I offer my body to himBrilliant light pours from his heart.

Thousands then notice my happinessAnd delight in pointingToward my beauty.

Hafiz,Is it true that our destinyIs to turn into LightItself?”

And I replied,

Dear moon,Now that your love is maturing,We need to sit togetherClose like this more often

So I might instruct youHow to becomeWho youAre!

(“The Gift” – versions of Hafiz by Daniel Ladinsky)
