  • ای خنک جغدی که در پرواز من ** فهم کرد از نیک بختی راز من‏
  • Oh, happy (is) the owl that in my (soaring) flight (towards God) had the good fortune to apprehend my mystery.
  • در من آویزید تا نازان شوید ** گر چه جغدانید شهبازان شوید 1165
  • Cling to me, that ye may become exultant (enjoying bliss), (and that) ye may become royal falcons, although ye are owls.
  • آن که باشد با چنان شاهی حبیب ** هر کجا افتد چرا باشد غریب‏
  • He that is dear to such a King—wheresoever he light, why should he be a stranger?
  • هر که باشد شاه دردش را دوا ** گر چو نی نالد نباشد بی‏نوا
  • Any one for whose pain the King is the remedy—though he wail like the reed (flute), he is not without plenty.
  • مالک ملکم نیم من طبل خوار ** طبل بازم می‏زند شه از کنار
  • I am the owner of the (spiritual) kingdom, I am not a lickspittle: the King is beating the falcon-drum for me from the shore.
  • طبل باز من ندای ارجعی ** حق گواه من به رغم مدعی‏
  • My falcon-drum is the call, ‘Return!’ God is my witness in despite of adversary.
  • من نیم جنس شهنشه دور از او ** لیک دارم در تجلی نور از او 1170
  • I am not a congener of the King of kings—far be it from Him!—but I have light from Him in (His) self-manifestation.
  • نیست جنسیت ز روی شکل و ذات ** آب جنس خاک آمد در نبات‏
  • Homogeneity is not in respect of form and essence: water becomes homogeneous with earth in the plant.
  • باد جنس آتش آمد در قوام ** طبع را جنس آمده ست آخر مدام‏
  • Wind (air) becomes homogeneous with fire in consistency; wine at last becomes homogeneous with the constitution (of the body).
  • جنس ما چون نیست جنس شاه ما ** مای ما شد بهر مای او فنا
  • Since my genus is not the genus of my King, my ego has passed away (faná) for the sake of His ego.
