  • If the beloved is that which the senses perceive, every one that has senses would be in love (with it).
  • چون وفا آن عشق افزون می‏کند ** کی وفا صورت دگرگون می‏کند
  • Inasmuch as constancy is increased by that (spiritual) love, how is constancy altered (impaired) by the (decay of the material) form?
  • پرتو خورشید بر دیوار تافت ** تابش عاریتی دیوار یافت‏
  • The sunbeam shone upon the wall: the wall received a borrowed splendour.
  • بر کلوخی دل چه بندی ای سلیم ** واطلب اصلی که تابد او مقیم‏
