The nightingale stood on the cypress tree last night,
its shrill voice explaining many truths:"Come, Moses, the fire has appeared on the bush,
Bushes show the secret of divine union""The clever birds will go to the garden,
Drink and enjoy while you hear their love-chirps""You've heard of Jam's Cup, but did it do Jam any good?
All the world's riches must pass.""Listen to my strange sad tale,
I was killed by my Friend, though he had the breath of Christ."Many hearts go mad just from your gaze,
Looking into your eyes I need no drink.The farmer was wise to advise his children:
"What today you sow, tomorrow you shall reap."Saki has served Hafiz too much wine,
His hat and cloak are all a-mess!
