Goftam Ke Mekhwaham Tura

'I said I want you — do not believe it, do not believe it / Do not withdraw from the company of friends, do not befriend me' — the opening is a disclaimer, a warning against the speaker's own declarations. 'Do not befriend me' is the instruction: what the speaker says and what the speaker does are not reliable guides to the speaker's actual desires.

'If I am smiling like a flower, I have set a trap of deception / Do not wet your hem in vain longing for such a trap' — the flower-trap image is precise. A flower's beauty is itself a lure; here the speaker explicitly names this as deception, warning the beloved not to be caught by the smile that is a snare.

'No — curse it — in my silent solitude / Think of no embrace but mine, no lips but my wine-filled ruby lips' — the poem then cancels the warning. After two stanzas of 'do not believe me, do not come near me,' the speaker switches: curse all that, come to me. The contradiction is the poem's subject. The speaker cannot hold the warning steady because the want is stronger than the caution.
