I suspect the translator might be a decent poet in his own right, but the liberties he's taken with Hafiz, in an attempt to make him modern, are awful. Shudder.

The author did not keep the translations as accurate as the real poems, instead trying to make them more hip and modern so that it lost the meaning entirely
