Excerpts from this ghazal:
http://ganjoor.net/attar/divana/ghazal-attar/sh46/

Farid Uddin Attar (12th c. Persian language)

Chon konam ma’ashugh-e ayyår åmadast
Dashne dar kaf su-ye bazaar åmadast
Dashne-ye u teshneh-ye khun-e del ast
Lajeram khunriz-o khun khor åmadast
Ashegh u vo eshgh u ma’ashugh-e ust
Kisti to chon hameh yår åmadast
Joz fanåi nist chon mibengaram
Ån che az vey ghesme Attår åmadast

What can I do, the beloved as a renegade has come
With dagger in hand, into the bazaar she has come
This sword is thirsty for the blood of the heart’s love
Surely to shed and devour this blood she has come
She is the Lover, Love, and the Beloved
Who are you when she is everything?
When I look all I see is annihilation
This is the destiny of Attar that has come.
