Gazel: On the Prophet Muhammed
G AZEL
On the Prophet Muhammed
That thy form, O Beauty of His orchard who doth all pervade!
Is a cypress, wrought of light, that casteth on earth's face no shade.
Though the gazers on the loveliness of Joseph cut their hands,
Cleft in twain the fair moon's palm, when in thy day-bright face surveyed.
To the mart of the Hereafter, when a man hath passed he gains
Through the money bright, thy love, which is of joy the stock-in-trade.
This my hope, that yonder Cypress in the bowers of Paradise
Shelter Zati , and all true believers, 'neath his blissful shade.
