here is another beautiful persian ghazal by Jamii..

yaar e man gar neem shab mast-e sharaab ayad beroun
zahid-e sad saala az masjid kharaab ayad beroun

subha dam tu rukh numayi, az namaaz-e man qazaa
sajda kin bashat rava, chun aaftab ayad beroun

baad e murdan laash e jami gar ba darya afgani
seena sozaan, dil tapaan, mahi ze aab ayad beroun

if my beloved were to arrive in her state of intoxication
an ascetic of a hundred years would come out of the mosque polluted

if you show your face in the morning, i would surely lose my morning prayers
for it is haraam to pray once the sun has shown itself

if you throw the body of ja'ami after his death in the sea
the heat of his heart would cause the fish to jump out of it!
