A shy divine deer
That I cannot cease tracking.
Though only once of late
Did I get so close
To see
My own face and heart
Reflected
In Your wondrous soft eyes.
Only once of late, Beloved,
When I thought that I had You
At last cornered
Did
Hafiz
Come to know
The sublime beauty of God’s body
Against my own
Hand.
– Hafiz (tr. Daniel Ladinsky)
Just thought you should know…
I absolutely love this!
