What was written on the tomb of Hafez in Shiraz? I was in Shiraz, at the gate of Quran I noticed a giant statue of a poet, is he Hafez? What was written on that wall? Then I visited the tomb of Hafez, and I noticed that there were some words written on the coffin, what does it say?

Hi, I guess this is the statue you're talking about: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/04/Khajuye_Kermani.jpg That is Khaajuye Kermani, another famous Iranian poet and a contemporary of Hafez. He is buried by the Quran Gate. Hafez's epitaph is one of his poems, as you'd expect. You can find it here, with an English translation: http://www.hafizonlove.com/divan/07/336.htm
