  • او شناسد بوی می کاو می بخورد ** چون نخورد او می چه داند بوی کرد
  • He (that spirit) knows the scent of the wine because he drank it (before); when he has not drunk it, how can he scent it?
  • ز انکه حکمت همچو ناقه‏ی ضاله است ** همچو دلاله شهان را داله است‏

  • یک نشانی که بخندد پیش تو ** یک نشان که دست بندد پیش تو
  • One sign is that he will smile before you; one sign is that he will fold his hands in your presence;
  • یک نشانی آن که این خواب از هوس ** چون شود فردا نگویی پیش کس‏
  • One sign is that when the morrow comes you will not tell this dream to any one, though you would fain do so.
