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.

My heart turned to effulgent wings.
When has love not given freedom?
When has adoration not made one free?
A woman broken in tears and sweat
Stands in a field
Watching the sun and me
Trade jokes.

But never would Hafiz laugh
At your blessed labor,
Of finding peace.
What do the dancing white birds say
Looking down upon burnt meadows?
All that you think is rain is not.

Behind the veil Hafiz and angels sometimes weep
Because most eyes are rarely glad.
And your divine beauty is still too frightened
To unfurl its thousand swaying arms.

The earth has disappeared beneath my feet,
Illusion fled from all my ecstasy.
Now like a radiant sky creature,

God keeps opening.
God keeps opening,
Inside of Me...
