Hafez

Read Hafez poems in Farsi AND English, and take Fal!فال حافظ به فارسی و انگلیسی

The romantic and philosophical poetry of Hafez has made Persians love his work for more than 700 years. On the eve of many of our Persian celebrations we often take "Faal", a random opening of the book and reading the poem that shows up. You think of some question you have without telling everyone, and open the book. You try to find an answer to your question in the poem.

Easily readable English translations are not easily available.

Based on wonderful work of Shahriar Shahriari, we present to you a completely free English Hafez poetry app. It does not include all the poems, but for now that's the best we could do :)
