رَواقِ منظرِ چشمِ من آشیانهٔ توست
ravāq-e manẓar-e cheshm-e man āshiyāne-ye tost
karam namā vo forūd ā ke khāne, khāne-ye tost

laṭīfe-hā-ye ʿajab zīr-e dām o dāne-ye tost
del-at be vaṣl-e gol ey bolbol-e ṣabā khwosh bād
ke dar chaman hame golbāng-e ʿāsheqāne-ye tost
ʿelāj-e żaʿf-e del-e mā be lab ḥavālat kon

ke sheʿr-e Ḥāfeẓ-e shīrīn-sokhan tarāne-ye tost
