It is like a journey to the mystics of east.In some moments it reminds me of Omer Khayyam,I felt like I read his verses.In some verses Hafez draws a picture in front of us that gets us thinking over it.you do not notice that while you walk in lines of his descriptions.I want to quote few parts

to spend even one moment grieving about this world
is a waste of time.let's go and sell our robes
for ordinary wine.who says our robes are better than wine?
