Hafiz, "It is Unanimous"
IT IS UNANIMOUS
Hafiz
It is unanimous where I come from.
Everyone agrees on one thing:
It’s no fun
When God is not near.
All are hunters.
The wise man learns the Friend’s weaknesses
And sets a clever trap
Listen,
The Beloved has agreed to play a game
Called
Love.
Our sun sat in the sky
Way before this earth was born
Waiting to caress a billion faces.
Hafiz encourages all art.
For at its height it brings Light near
To us.
The wise man learns what draws God
Near.
It is the beauty of compassion
In your heart.
Written by the 13th century Persian poet, Hafiz.
