اتصالی بی‌تکیف بی‌قیاس ** هست رب‌الناس را با جان ناس760
There is a union beyond description or analogy between the Lord of Man and the spirit of Man.
لیک گفتم ناس من نسناس نی ** ناس غیر جان جان‌اشناس نی
But I said nás (Man), not nasnás; nás is none but the spirit that knows the (Divine) Spirit.
ناس مردم باشد و کو مردمی ** تو سر مردم ندیدستی دمی
Nás is Man, and where is Manhood? You have never beheld the head (spiritual principle) of Man: you are a tail.
ما رمیت اذ رمیت خوانده‌ای ** لیک جسمی در تجزی مانده‌ای
You have recited (the text) thou didst not throw when thou threwest, but you are a (mere) body: you have remained in division.
ملک جسمت را چو بلقیس ای غبی ** ترک کن بهر سلیمان نبی
Like Bilqís, O foolish one, abandon the kingdom of your body for the sake of the prophet Solomon.
می‌کنم لا حول نه از گفت خویش ** بلک از وسواس آن اندیشه کیش765
I am crying “lá hawl,” not on account of my own words, nay, but on account of the false suggestions of the person accustomed to think (evil),
کو خیالی می‌کند در گفت من ** در دل از وسواس و انکارات ظن
Who is conceiving in his heart a vain fancy about my words, (a fancy arising) from the false suggestions and incredulities of (evil) thought.
می‌کنم لا حول یعنی چاره نیست ** چون ترا در دل بضدم گفتنیست
I am crying “lá hawl,” that is, “there is no help,” because in your heart there is a contradiction of me.
چونک گفت من گرفتت در گلو ** من خمش کردم تو آن خود بگو
Since my words have stuck in your throat, I am silent: do you speak your own (words).
آن یکی نایی خوش نی می‌زدست ** ناگهان از مقعدش بادی بجست
A sweet flute-player was playing the flute subito e podice ejus erupit ventus. [A sweet flute-player was playing the flute: suddenly, some wind escaped from his ass.]
