Ghazal 1647
1
It is a day of joy. Come, let us all be friends!
Let us take each other by the hand and go to the Beloved.
2
When we become stupefied in Him and are all one color,
Let us keep going, dancing, toward the bazaar.
3
It is a day for all the beauties to dance,
Let us close down our shops and all be idle.
4
It is a day for the spirits to wear robes of honor,
Let us go as God's guests to the mysteries.
5
It is a day, when idols are setting up tents in the garden,
Let us go to the rosegarden and gaze upon them!
