  • زیرک و داناست اما نیست نیست ** تا فرشته لا نشد اهریمنی است‌‌
  • It is clever and knowing, but it is not naught (devoid of self-existence): until the angel has become naught, he is an Ahriman (Devil).
  • او به قول و فعل یار ما بود ** چون به حکم حال آیی لا بود
  • It (partial reason) is our friend in word and deed, (but) when you come to the case of inward feeling (ecstasy), it is naught (of no account).
  • لا بود چون او نشد از هست نیست ** چون که طوعا لا نشد کرها بسی است‌‌ 1985
  • It is naught because it did not (pass away) from existence and become nonexistent: since it did not become naught willingly, (it must become naught nevertheless, for) there is many a one (who became naught, i.e. died) unwillingly.
  • جان کمال است و ندای او کمال ** مصطفی گویان ارحنا یا بلال‌‌
  • The Spirit is perfection and its call is perfection: Mustafá (Mohammed) used to say, “Refresh us, O Bilál!
  • ای بلال افراز بانگ سلسلت ** ز آن دمی کاندر دمیدم در دلت‌‌
  • O Bilál, lift up thy mellifluous voice (drawn) from that breath which I breathed into thy heart,
  • ز آن دمی کادم از آن مدهوش گشت ** هوش اهل آسمان بی‌‌هوش گشت‌‌
  • From that breath by which Adam was dumbfounded and the wits of the people of Heaven were made witless.”
  • مصطفی بی‌‌خویش شد ز آن خوب صوت ** شد نمازش از شب تعریس فوت‌‌
  • Mustafá became beside himself at that beautiful voice: his prayer escaped him (was left unperformed) on the night of the ta‘rís.
  • سر از آن خواب مبارک بر نداشت ** تا نماز صبحدم آمد به چاشت‌‌ 1990
  • He did not raise his head from that blessed sleep until the (time of the) dawn prayer had advanced to (the time of) forenoon.
  • در شب تعریس پیش آن عروس ** یافت جان پاک ایشان دستبوس‌‌
  • On the night of the ta‘rís his holy spirit gained (the privilege of) kissing hands in the presence of the Bride.
  • عشق و جان هر دو نهانند و ستیر ** گر عروسش خوانده‌‌ام عیبی مگیر
  • Love and the Spirit are, both of them, hidden and veiled: if I have called Him (God) the Bride, do not find fault.
