The poem
الا یا ایها الساقی ادر کأساً و ناولها
که عشق آسان نمود اول ولی افتاد مشکلها
مرا در منزل جانان چه امن عیش چون هر دم
جرس فریاد میدارد که بربندید محملها
About the poem
The opening ghazal of Hafez's Divan: a call to the cupbearer to pass the wine, the hard-won truth that love which seemed easy turns to difficulty, and the caravan bell forever warning that it is time to move on.
