Ghazal Forty-five
Oh, my life, wherever you go, may the Almighty protect you,
You have taken my heart and faith; may God shelter you.(1)
Both the nightingale and the flower are yearning for you,
Come, for a moment may be, to my garden; may God bless you.(2)
Sprinkle salt through your reddish lips on my impaired heart,
And let my roasted heart be burnt; may Almighty protect you.(3)
How charming it will be if your lofty stature,
Comes strolling into my garden; may God grace you.(4)
Come, come into the pupil of my vision,
As your abode is in my tear-shedding eyes; may Almighty be your
shelter.(5)(45)
