[Darvish23]

گفتا من آن ترنجم کاندر جهان نگنجم

گفتم به از ترنجی لیکن به دست نائی

گفتا تو از کجائی که آشفته مینمائی

گفتم منم غریبی از شهر آشنائی

گفتا سر چه داری کز سر خبر نداری

گفتم بر آستانت دارم سر گدائی

گفتا به دلربائی ما را چگونه دیدی

گفتم چو خرمنی گل در بزم دلربائی

(خواجوی کرمانی )

[cerendepity]

In persian a pronoun doesn't distinguish between genders, and it is my point of view that no-one can translate poetry and do it justice. that said, from the perspective of a male speaker, which the poet was, it would go something like this:

She said I'm a rare fruit (rembling a lemon in external beauty and being sour) which doesn't last

I said you're better than any fruit, with the difference that you can't be plucked

[7kurosawa7]

i love persia... free iran, now

هر کس به این آهنگ Dislike داده هر چه زود تر خودشو به دکتر معرفی کنه، یا قرصاشو بشوره و بخوره.

Hi

Translation a Persian poem to English is not easy and sometime impossible. It needs explanation especially Hafez rhymes. Sorry!

گفتم که نوش لعلت ما را به آرزو کشت

گفتا تو بندگی کن کو بنده پرور آید

[pashmpoosh]

@RiskySix Here is a rough translation:

She said I am Toranj who does not belong to this world,

I said you are better than Toranj although you are difficult to behold,

She said where are u from o' you bewildered man,

I said I'm a stranger from a familiar city,

She said, what do you understand since you are a man of no understanding,

I said I am a beggar in your presence, That's what I understand,

She said how do you perceive me in beauty,

I said like a multitude of flowers in a beauty feast
