More quotes by Hafez
Poetry reveals that there is no empty space.
Hafez
The small man builds cages for everyone he knows While the sage, who has to duck his head when the moon is low, Keeps dropping keys all night long For the beautiful rowdy prisoners.
Hafez
The only friends who are free from cares are the goblet of wine and a book. Give me wine...that I may for a time forget the cares of the world.
Hafez
Think of suffering as being washed.
Hafez

The earth has disappeared beneath my feet, It fled from all my ecstasy. Now like a singing air creature I feel the rose keep opening.
Hafez
How did the rose ever open its heart and give to this world all of its beauty? It felt the encouragement of Light against its being otherwise we all remain too frightened.
Hafez
Your love Should never be offered to the mouth of a Stranger, Only to someone Who has the valor and daring To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife Then weave them into a blanket To protect you.
Hafez
The beauty of You delights me. The sight of You amazes me. For the Pearl does this... and the Ocean does that.
Hafez

Hafez
Carry your heart through this world like a life-giving sun
Hafez
Every desire of your body is holy Every desire of your body is Holy.
Hafez
People say that the soul, on hearing the song of creation, entered the body, but in reality the soul itself was the song.
Hafez
I know you have a hundred complex cases against God in court, but never mind, let's just get out of this mess.
Hafez
Whatis the root of all these words? One thing: Love. But a love so deep and sweet it needed to express itself with scents, sounds, colors that never before existed.
Hafez
