I am a Bird from Paradise
By Hafez
90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books
May I remember always when,
Your glance in secrecy met mine,
And in my face your love was like
A visibly reflected sign.
May I remember always when,
Your chiding eyes were like my death,
And your sweet lips restored my life,
Like Jesus's reviving breath.
May I remember always when,
We drank our wine as darkness died,
My friend and I, alone at dawn,
Though God was there too, at our side.
