  • از که خوردم شیر غیر شیر او ** کی مرا پرورد جز تدبیر او
  • From whom did I drink milk other than His milk? Who nourished me except His providence?
  • خوی کان با شیر رفت اندر وجود ** کی توان آن را ز مردم واگشود

  • فرقت از قهرش اگر آبستن است ** بهر قدر وصل او دانستن است‏
  • If separation (from Him) is big with His wrath, ’tis for the sake of knowing the worth of union with Him,
  • تا دهد جان را فراقش گوشمال ** جان بداند قدر ایام وصال‏
  • So that separation from Him may give the soul chastisement, (and that) the soul may know the value of the days of union.
