  • چون گشادت حق دریچه سوی خویش  ** در رحم هر دم فزاید تنت بیش 
  • (Yet), when God has opened for you a window in His direction, your body (hidden) in the womb grows more (and more) every moment,

  • اندر آن زندان ز ذوق بی‌قیاس  ** خوش شکفت از غرس جسم تو حواس 
  • And in that prison, from the immeasurable delight (which you feel therein), the senses blossom happily from the plant, your body.

  • زان رحم بیرون شدن بر تو درشت  ** می‌گریزی از زهارش سوی پشت

  • راه لذت از درون دان نه از برون  ** ابلهی دان جستن قصر و حصون  3420
  • Know that the way of (spiritual) pleasure is from within, not from without: know that it is folly to seek palaces and castles.

  • آن یکی در کنج مسجد مست و شاد  ** وآن دگر در باغ ترش و بی‌مراد

  • این نمی‌بینی که در بزم شراب  ** مست آنگه خوش شود کو شد خراب 
  • Don't you see that at the wine-feast the drunkard becomes happy (only) when he becomes ruined (senseless)?

  • گرچه پر نقش است خانه بر کنش  ** گنج جو و از گنج آبادان کنش 
  • Although the (bodily) house is full of pictures, demolish it: seek the treasure, and with the treasure put it (the house) into good repair.

  • خانه‌ی پر نقش تصویر و خیال  ** وین صور چون پرده بر گنج وصال  3425
  • ’Tis a house filled with pictures of imagination and fancy, and these forms (ideas) are as a veil over the treasure of union (with God).

  • پرتو گنجست و تابش‌های زر  ** که درین سینه همی‌جوشد صور 
  • ’Tis the radiance of the Treasure and the splendours of the (spiritual) gold that cause the forms (ideas) to surge up in this breast.
