Khwāja Shams-ud-Dīn Muḥammad Ḥāfeẓ-e Shīrāzī (1315-1390) known by
who "lauded the joys of love and wine but also targeted religious hypocrisy".
His collected works are regarded as a pinnacle of Persian literature and are
often found in the homes of people in the Persian speaking world, who learn
his poems by heart and still use them as proverbs and sayings. His life and
poems have been the subject of much analysis, commentary and interpretation,
influencing post-14th century Persian writing more than any other author.
Themes of his ghazals are the beloved, faith, and exposing hypocrisy.
In his ghazals, he deals with love, wine and tavern, all presenting the
ecstasy and freedom from restraint, whether in actual worldly release
or in the voice of the lover speaking of divine love.
His influence in the lives of Persian speakers can be found in
"Hafez readings" and the frequent use of his poems in
Persian traditional music, visual art, and Persian calligraphy.
His tomb is visited often.
Adaptations, imitations and translations of his poems exist
in all major languages.

Ba har cheez jamal-e-yaar deedam
In every way the splendor of Beloved do I see
In every thing the beauty of my Love do I see
Na deedam haich shaira khaali az ve
Par az ve kooncha-o-bazaar deedam
I don’t see anything without It
But I see Love in every corner and bazaar
Jo khud ra bingaram deedam hamuna ast
Jamal-e-khud jamal-e-yaar deedum
My own-ness does not belong to me
My beauty is Beloved's beauty do I see
Namaz-e-zahidaan mehrab o minbar
Naaz-e-ashiqaan bar daar e deedum
Namaz of the pious is on mehraab and minbar
Namaz of the Lovers on the stake do I see
Jo yak jura raseed az ghaib Hāfez
Hama aqal-o-khird bekaar deedam
So suddenly your righteousness is gone Hāfez
Now reason and intellect useless do I see.
Hama aqal-o-khird bekaar deedam
So suddenly your righteousness is gone Hāfez
Now reason and intellect useless do I see.
The lyrics are traditionally attributed to Hafez,
and part of the folk tradition. Curiously, they seem
not be listed in his divan.
