Happy Hafez Day
October 11, 2007 - 0:0
Every year, Iranian people flock to the tomb of Hafez in Shiraz on October 11 to commemorate his birth anniversary, which is celebrated as Hafez Day in Iran.
Arise, oh Cup-bearer, rise! and bringTo lips that are thirsting the bowl they praise,
For it seemed that love was an easy thing,
But my feet have fallen on difficult ways.
