14 Ghazal 467: chi khush subhī damīd imshab az rū-yi yār-i khud

What a fine dawn broke tonight

from my lover’s face! This early spring

refreshed the garden of my life.

Praise God! Fortune’s field bore fruit,

and nothing my eyes rained down

upon my days has gone to waste.

Was separation the Judgement Day?

So it seems to me. When it came to an end,

I saw the door of paradise open

upon her exquisite face, and now

that I know nothing of my countless pains,

I can give my friends no account

of my one-time sorrows. My heart and soul,

how they agonized over me

during our separation. Now I show

them her face and I put them both to shame.
