Additional quotes by Hafez

"Son yatacağı yer bir iki avuç topraktan ibaret olan kişiye de ki: Sarayını, çardağını göklere kadar yükseltmeye ne hacet var?" Hafız-ı Şirazî

I wish I could show you,
When you are lonely or in darkness,

The Astonishing Light
Of your own Being!

"And still, after all this time,
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe Me."

Look what happens with
A love like that,
It lights the Whole Sky."
