Durch deine schönen Locken werden Die Heiden und die Glaubensstarken In gleicher Weise sinnverwirrt. Die schwachen Seelen stürzen taumelnd In deiner Wangen holde Grübchen, Die starken Seelen stürzen nach. Dein Aug, das von der schwarzen Kunst Geschaffen ward, lenkt aus den Wolken Des Adlers Flug zu sich zurück. Die zarte Nachtigall, die nicht Aufsteigen kann in Wolkenfernen, Ist ganz und gar in deinem Bann. Hafis vergaß um deinetwillen Die Morgen- und die Nachtgebete, Klar ist sein Seelenuntergang!

Dėl tavo garbanų gražiųjų Netikėliai ir tikintieji Tuo pat būdu iš proto eis. Ir klumpa staigiai silpnos sielos Duobelėse tavųjų skruostų, Ir stiprios sielos klumpa ten. O tavo akys, juodo meno kurtos, Nukreipia iš dangaus aukštybių Erelio skrydį link savęs. Lakštingala švelnioji, kur negali Pakilt į debesų tolybes, Taviesiems burtams paklusni. O dėl tavęs pamiršo Hafis Maldas rytais ir vakarais kalbėti, Tad aiškus krytis jojo sielos!
