Hafez (1325-1389), the great lyric Persian poet is known for his ghazals. He has published about 500 ghazals and 42 Rubaiyees. Themes of his ghazals are the beloved, faith, and exposing hypocrisy. His most popular book, Divan-e Hafez, is a pinnacle of Persian literature and is to be found in the homes of most Iranian people. Persian poetry lovers learn Hafez's poems by heart and still use them as proverbs and sayings. Adaptations, imitations and translations of his ghazals exist in all major languages. All Hafez's ghazals are provided in this bilingual book in Persian and English languages. The translation appearing in this collection is by Henry Wilberforce Clarke (1840 - 1905). This book can be useful for Persian and English language speakers and enjoyable for poetry lovers of any age. Not only will poems improve your understanding of Persian language and history, but they'll help improve your understanding of Persian culture. Since all ghazals are written according to the transliterated English spelling, reading the poems is easy.
