Ghazal Twenty-two
People pay their obeisance eighteen thousand times towards your portal,
And all the time they perform circumambulations around the Holy Kabah
of your avenue.(1)
Wherever they may see, your splendour is visible,
And those with rent heart are sufficed to have a perception of your
countenance.(2)
They have renounced their lives for your magnanimous attributes,
And they apply your fragrance to enliven the inert ones.(3)
Your semblance is the epitome of godly phenomenon,
And they behold the image of Almighty through your visage.(4)
Those, with raven hearts and devoid of vision, are not constrained,
They bring round the sun to relate it to your delineation.(5)
In your fondness, the crazy enthusiasts fill the world with clamour,
And they even relinquish hundreds of lives for the sake of just one
strand of your hair.(6)
When the resplendence from under your veil, spreads your brilliance,
In every direction your splendour is deliberated on.(7)
Allured by your fondness, Goya is reflecting upon you,
Because he takes melodic sweetness from the fragrance of your
diction.(8)(22)
