\"Hasht-Bihisht_Amir_Khusro_Met_1\"<\/a><\/h1>\n

Translation:<\/h1>\n

I don’t know what place it was, where I was last night,
\nThe dance of death whirled all around me, where I was last night
\nA nymph-like\u00a0beauty with tulip cheeks and a\u00a0cypress body
\nwas wreaking havoc in the hearts, where I was last night
\nGod himself was the master of ceremonies, in that placeless place, oh Khusrow
\nMuhammad was the candle of that party, where I was last night.<\/p>\n
