Who is this? Who is the beauty who has arrived sweetly?
Who has arrived at our house drunken with shoes under arms.
By way of trickery came that ruby-lipped asking for fire.
Who does he intend to burn this time, I wonder.
He has come alone.
O come! You the source of fire, come! How could you ask us for fire?
By God this is another trick, O you who have arrived so unexpectedly.

Rumi, from Divan
