  • ما محب جان و روح افزای تو  ** ساجدان مخلص بابای تو  2995
  • (That) we are lovers of thy soul and fosterers of thy spirit and sincere worshippers of thy Father?
  • این زمانت خدمتی هم می‌کنیم  ** سوی مخدومی صلایت می‌زنیم 
  • (That) at this time also we are serving thee and inviting thee (to advance) towards sovereignty?
  • آن گره بابات را بوده عدی  ** در خطاب اسجدوا کرده ابا 
  • (And that) that party (the Devils) were thy Father's enemies who refused to obey the (Divine) command, Worship (Adam)?
  • آن گرفتی آن ما انداختی  ** حق خدمتهای ما نشناختی 
  • Thou didst accept that (offer made by them), thou didst reject ours: thou didst not acknowledge the debt (of gratitude) due for our services.
  • این زمان ما را و ایشان را عیان  ** در نگر بشناس از لحن و بیان 
  • Now look on us and them in clear view, and recognise (each party) by voice and speech.’
  • نیم شب چون بشنوی رازی ز دوست  ** چون سخن گوید سحر دانی که اوست  3000
  • If you hear a secret from a friend at midnight, you will know that it was he when he speaks (to you again) at dawn;
  • ور دو کس در شب خبر آرد ترا  ** روز از گفتن شناسی هر دو را 
  • And if two persons bring news to you in the night, you will recognise both of them in the daytime by their (manner of) speaking.
  • بانگ شیر و بانگ سگ در شب رسید  ** صورت هر دو ز تاریکی ندید 
  • (If) during the night the sound of a lion and the sound of a dog have come (into some one's ear) and he has not seen their forms on account of the darkness,
  • روز شد چون باز در بانگ آمدند  ** پس شناسدشان ز بانگ آن هوشمند 
  • When day breaks and they begin to make (the same) sound again, the intelligent (hearer) will know them by the sound (which they make).
  • مخلص این که دیو و روح عرضه‌دار  ** هر دو هستند از تتمه‌ی اختیار 
  • The upshot is this, that both the Devil and the (angelic) Spirit who present (objects of desire to us) exist for the purpose of completing (actualising) the power of choice.
