You have not danced so badly, my dear
Trying to hold hands with the Beautiful One
You have waltzed with great style,
My sweet, crushed angel,
To have even neared God's heart at all
Our Partner is notoriously difficult to follow
And even His best musicians are not always easy to hear
So what,
If the music has stopped for awhile
So what,
If the price of admission to the Divine is out of reach tonight
So what, my dear
If you do not have the ante to gamble for Real Love
The mind and body are notorious for holding the heart ransom, but Hafiz
knows the Beloveds eternal habits
Have patience,
For He will not be able to resist your longing for long
You have not danced so badly, my dear
Trying to kiss the Beautiful One
You have actually waltzed with tremendous style,
O my sweet,
O my sweet, crushed angel*
