For centuries, Iranians have opened the Divan of Hafez when a question is on their mind. Think of your question and read what Hafez answers.

Your Fal

Ghazal 179

رسید مژده که ایّامِ غم نخواهد ماندچنان نماند، چنین نیز هم نخواهد ماند

من ار چه در نظرِ یار خاک‌سار شدمرقیب نیز چنین محترم نخواهد ماند

چو پرده‌دار به شمشیر می‌زند همه راکسی مُقیمِ حریمِ حَرَم نخواهد ماند

Interpretation

Good news: the days of sorrow won’t last; just as joys didn’t last, hardships won’t either. If you are slighted now, your rival won’t stay honoured forever either. Seize the chance for closeness. If you are well off, win the hearts of the poor, for nothing remains in the world but good deeds. Don’t despair of your beloved’s kindness.

Think of your question, then open your Fal.
