HAFEZ
لعلی از کان مروت برنیامد سالهاست، تابش خورشید و سعی باد و باران را چه شد
La'li az kân-e morovvat bar-nayâmad sâl-hâst, tâbesh-e khorshid o sa'y-e bâd o bârân râ che shod
No ruby of generosity has come from that mine in years — what became of the sun's warmth, the wind and rain's labor?
Hafez · Divan, Ghazal 169
