There’s a close relationship between Hafez’s poetry and the Qur’an, and\u00a0it’s seldom as explicit as in\u00a0the poem below:<\/p>\n

\"turqillumin\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"bluequran2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Translation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the night of union and the tale of separation is\u00a0at an end<\/h6>\n
Therein is peace until the break of dawn.<\/h6>\n
O heart, be steadfast in love<\/h6>\n
For on this path, no work is without reward.<\/h6>\n
I will not repent of my dissolute ways.<\/h6>\n
even if you punish\u00a0me with banishment and separation.<\/h6>\n
My heart left, but I did not see the face of the sweetheart<\/h6>\n
weeping from this disdain\u00a0and oh, from this grief.<\/h6>\n
Oh heart-illuminating morning, arise for God’s sake.<\/h6>\n
For the night of separation looks dark to me.<\/h6>\n
Hafez, if you want fidelity, endure cruelty<\/h6>\n
for there is gain and loss in trade.<\/h6>\n
