Hafiz, a 14th-century Persian poet, is widely regarded as one of the greatest masters of classical Persian literature. His poems, known as the Divan-e Hafez, are filled with mystical and philosophical themes, often exploring the nature of love, wine, and the divine.
Here are a few of his most famous poems:
Gül o surme:
Ey gül o surme, ey 'az gul wa surme gul-tar, Ey 'az gul wa surme majnun-tar, Ey 'az gul wa surme 'ālam-dar, Ey 'az gul wa surme 'ālam-dar, Ey 'az gul wa surme 'ālam-dar, Ey 'az gul wa surme 'ālam-dar, Ey 'az gul wa surme 'ālam-dar.
Translation:
O rose and saffron, O more beautiful than rose and saffron, O more mad than rose and saffron, O ruler of the world, O ruler of the world, O ruler of the world, O ruler of the world, O ruler of the world.
Aşk-e 'ālim:
Ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, Ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, Ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, Ey 'ālim-e 'ālim, ey 'ālim-e 'ālim.

A Tale of Two Mystics: Hafiz and Rumi
In the heart of ancient Persia, two luminaries emerged whose words continue to resonate through the ages. Hafiz and Rumi, both Sufi poets, left an indelible mark on Persian literature, mysticism, and culture. Their poetry, steeped in divine love, philosophical musings, and a profound understanding of the human condition, has captivated readers for centuries.
Hafiz, the "Nightingale of Shiraz," is renowned for his lyrical ghazals, often imbued with a sense of longing, passion, and spiritual yearning. His poetry delves into the complexities of love, both earthly and divine, and explores the mystical path towards union with the Beloved. His works, such as "Gül o surme" and "Aşk-e 'ālim," are celebrated for their beauty, depth, and timeless wisdom.
Rumi, the "Celestial Rose," is equally revered for his mystical poetry, particularly his masterpiece, "Masnavi." His work is characterized by its allegorical nature, often employing stories and parables to convey profound spiritual truths. Rumi's poetry explores themes of love, unity, and the divine, and his verses are filled with a sense of joy, ecstasy, and spiritual intoxication. Examples of his influential works include "The Guest House" and "The Lover and the Beloved."
The influence of Hafiz and Rumi extends far beyond their native Persia. Their poetry has been translated into numerous languages, inspiring countless poets, philosophers, and spiritual seekers around the world. Their writings continue to offer solace, wisdom, and a path towards spiritual enlightenment.
