This poem is misidentified as Hafiz (although it’s very easy to do so). This was written by the poet Daniel Ladinsky, who writes Hafiz-inspired poetry which he intentionally over-characterizes as “versions.” He makes it ambiguous that he is writing poems inspired by Hafiz as opposed to translating Hafiz directly. A great poem in its own right! But it is unfortunate that Daniel has contributed to so much confusion and misunderstanding regarding the actual prolific body of work produced by Hafiz.
