Ghazal Twenty-five
What, if you show your semblance, which is quintessence of the full
moon
Then, Oh, My Moon, what will you lose meeting me this evening(1)
The whole world is the prisoner of your tresses,
And if you untie it, would it harm you(2)
The whole world is plunged in the darkness without you,
And if you appear like the sun, would it harm you(3)
Come, may be momentarily, and posture in my vision,
O, you, the filcher of my heart, if you engross my perceptions, would it
harm you(4)
This black mole, which is relishing your face,
If you trade it for humanity, would it harm you(5)
You are subsisting in my vision, then, whom am I searching for
If you advent from behind this curtain of invisibility, would it harm you(6)
Goya is searching for you in all the directions,
If you make him visualise the way, would it harm you(7)(25)
