i collected 9 selected Hafiz poems in 3 clips from the book "The Gift"
4 wit, wisdom & 4 your joy ..

extracted from review in Morning Light Bookstore:
" With this collection of 250 of Hafiz's most intimate poems, Daniel Ladinsky has brilliantly succeeded in capturing the essence of one of Islam's greatest poetic and religious voices. Though Hafiz is only now being discovered by many in the West, his poems have had a deeply felt influence here. Of Hafiz, Emerson said, "He fears nothing. He sees too far; he sees throughout; such is the only man I wish to... be." While Goethe enthused, "This is a madness I know well -- Hafiz has no peer."
