هوس • (havas)

violent desire; lust; passion; shallow love
havas râ bâ 'ešq eštebâh na-kon.
Do not confuse lust with love.
- c. 1580, Vahshī Bāfqī, “شرح پریشانی”, in گزیده اشعار [Selected Poems]‎^[4]:
  گر چه از خاطر وحشی هوس روی تو رفت
  وز دلش آرزوی قامت دلجوی تو رفت
  شد دل‌آزرده و آزرده‌دل از کوی تو رفت
  با دل پر گله از ناخوشی خوی تو رفت
  gar či az xâtir-i wahšî hawas-i rôy-i tu raft
  w-az dil-aš ârzû-yi qâmat-i diljôy-i tu raft
  šud dil-âzarda u âzarda-dil az kôy-i tu raft
  bâ lab-i pur gila az nâxwašî-yi xôy-i tu raft
  Although the lust for your face has left Vahshī’s mind
  And the desire for your comforting stature has left his heart
  Vexed, he has left your street with a sore heart
  He has left with lips full of complaint at your ill behavior.
  (Classical Persian transliteration)
capricious desire; temporary desire; whim
