Beautiful Creature

by Hafiz

There is a beautiful creature living

in a hole you have

dug.

so at night I set fruit and grains and little pots of wine and milk

beside your soft earthen

mounds.

and I often sing to you,

but still, my dear, you do not come out.

I have fallen in love with someone

who is hiding inside

of you.

We should talk about this problem,

otherwise I will never

leave you

alone!
