En savoir plus sur le livre

The Persian poet Hafez (1320-1389) is celebrated as a Sufi mystic whose verses embody the quest for God-Realization through union with a Beloved and the experience of spiritual love, often symbolized by the act of drinking wine. Hafez's poetry is renowned for its depth and beauty, with 43 ghazals included in this collection, showcasing the essence of Persian poetry and Sufi philosophy. His works are characterized by sonnet-like arrangements that offer both sensual and mystic interpretations. Hafez is often referred to as "The Interpreter of Mysteries" and "The Tongue of the Hidden," with his verses regarded as oracular for those seeking guidance. Despite the scarcity of factual information about his life, the legends surrounding him enhance his mythic quality. This collection draws from his Divan, a Sufi classic, and reflects the timeless nature of Hafez's utterances, which resonate universally across cultures and eras.
