A Year with Hafiz

Read a sample Read a sample
365 soul-nurturing poems from Daniel Ladinsky—one for each day of the year—inspired by the cherished verse of Persian lyric poet Hafiz.
The poems of Hafiz are masterpieces of sacred poetry that nurture the heart, soul, and mind. Ladinsky’s poems are not translations in a literal sense.  Rather than capture the form of a particular classical work, Ladinsky crafts poems that release the spirit of Hafiz.
With learned insight, Ladinsky explores the many emotions addressed in these verses. His renderings, presented here in 365 poignant poems—including a section based on the interpretations of Hafiz by Ralph Waldo Emerson—capture the compelling wisdom of one of the most revered Sufi poets.  Intimate and often spiritual, these poems are beautifully sensuous, playful, wacky, and profound, and provide guidance for everyday life, as well as deep wisdom to savor through a lifetime.
