The Outing of the Zahed by Hafez
Lyrics by Hafez of Shiraz (14th century) music by me
A recluse went to a tavern yesterday and abandoned his vows
The one whose youth had gone to sleep fell crazy in love again in his old age
The fire in the face of the flower burned the nightingale
The laughing face of the candle destroyed the moth
