  • From shame the power of standing remains not, and from abashment he recites a litany of glorification while his knees are bowed.
  • باز فرمان می‌رسد بردار سر ** از رکوع و پاسخ حق بر شمر
  • Then comes the (Divine) command, “Lift up thy head from the genuflexion and tell over (what thou hast to say in) answer to God.”
  • سر بر آرد از رکوع آن شرمسار ** باز اندر رو فتد آن خام‌کار
  • The shamefaced one lifts up his head from the genuflexion; then that man whose works are unripe (imperfect) falls on his face.
