Fate Astray

Even if swords rain in the quarter of the moonfaced one
We bow our heads by the will of God

We also know the rituals of piety
But we have to accept that our fate went astray

Your goodness did not reflect in our lives
Oh, mirror face with such a heart, alas

I am a free, fearless lover, I ought to repent
Oh, God have mercy, God have mercy

Oh my dear, how could I express your absence
My eyes have a hundred tears, 
my heart has a hundred sighs

The desire of your lips made Hafez forget 
Both my evening lesson and my morning prayer
