Poem by Hafiz, from "Love Poems from God" by Daniel Ladinsky

lyrics

Look how a mirror will reflect with perfect equanimity
all actions before it.
There is no act in this world that will ever cause the
mirror to look away. There is no act in this world that
will ever make the mirror say, “no.”
The mirror, like perfect love, will just keep giving of
itself to all before it.
How did the mirror ever get like that, so polite, so
grand, so compassionate? It watched the Eternal.
It studied the Eternal.
Yes, the mirror remembers the Beloved looking into
itself as the Beloved shaped existence’s heart and the
mirror’s soul.
My eye has the nature of God. Hafiz looks upon all
with perfect equanimity as do my words, dear.
My poems will never tell you no, because the mirror is
not like that,
and if God ever hits you with a don’t, He has His fingers
crossed. He is just fibbing for your own good.
