  • چون به یک دکان بگفتی عمرم  ** این عمر را نان فروشید از کرم 
  • When you say at one shop, “I am ‘Umar: kindly sell bread to this ‘Umar,”
  • او بگوید رو بدان دیگر دکان  ** زان یکی نان به کزین پنجاه نان 
  • He (the baker) will say, “Go to that other shop: one loaf from that (shop) is better than fifty from this.”
  • گر نبودی احول او اندر نظر  ** او بگفتی نیست دکانی دگر 
  • If he (the customer) had not been seeing double, he would have replied, “There is no other shop”;
  • پس ردی اشراق آن نااحولی  ** بر دل کاشی شدی عمر علی 
  • And then the illumination produced by not seeing double would have shot (rays) upon the heart of him (the baker) of Kásh, and ‘Umar would have become ‘Alí.
  • این ازینجا گوید آن خباز را  ** این عمر را نان فروش ای نانبا  3225
  • This (baker) says, (speaking) from this place (shop) to that (other) baker, “O baker, sell bread to this ‘Umar”;
  • چون شنید او هم عمر نان در کشید  ** پس فرستادت به دکان بعید 
  • And he too, on hearing (the name) ‘Umar, withholds bread (from you) and sends (you) to a shop some way off,
  • کین عمر را نان ده ای انباز من  ** راز یعنی فهم کن ز آواز من 
  • Saying, “Give bread to this ‘Umar, O my partner,” i.e. “apprehend the secret (my real meaning) from (the tone of) my voice.”
  • او همت زان سو حواله می‌کند  ** هین عمر آمد که تا بر نان زند 
  • He also will pass you on from there (to another baker), (saying to him), “Hark, ‘Umar is come to get some bread.”
  • چون به یک دکان عمر بودی برو  ** در همه کاشان ز نان محروم شو 
  • When you have been ‘Umar in one shop, go (your way) and do not expect to obtain bread in all Káshán.
  • ور به یک دکان علی گفتی بگیر  ** نان ازینجا بی‌حواله و بی‌زحیر  3230
  • But if you have said in one shop, “(I am) ‘Alí,” (then you may) obtain bread from this place (shop) without being passed on (to another shop) and without trouble.
  • احول دو بین چو بی‌بر شد ز نوش  ** احول ده بینی ای مادر فروش 
  • Since the squinter who sees two (instead of one) is deprived of the enjoyment of delicious food, (your case is worse, for) you are seeing ten, O you who would sell your mother!
  • اندرین کاشان خاک از احولی  ** چون عمر می‌گرد چو نبوی علی 
  • Because of seeing double, wander (to and fro) like ‘Umar in this Káshán of earth, since you are not ‘Alí.
  • هست احول را درین ویرانه دیر  ** گوشه گوشه نقل نو ای ثم خیر 
  • In this ruined monastery the man who sees double is (continually) removing from one nook to another, O (you who say to yourself), “The good (which I seek) is (to be found) there.”
  • ور دو چشم حق‌شناس آمد ترا  ** دوست پر بین عرصه‌ی هر دو سرا 
  • But if you get two eyes that can recognise God, (you will) see (that) the (entire) expanse of both worlds (is) full of the Beloved,
  • وا رهیدی از حواله‌ی جا به جا  ** اندرین کاشان پر خوف و رجا  3235
  • (And so) you escape from being transferred from place to place in this Káshán (which is) filled with fear and hope.
  • اندرین جو غنچه دیدی یا شجر  ** هم‌چو هر جو تو خیالش ظن مبر 
  • (If) you have seen buds or trees (reflected) in this River, do not suppose that they are a phantom (illusion) like (those of) any (ordinary) river;
  • که ترا از عین این عکس نقوش  ** حق حقیقت گردد و میوه‌فروش 
  • For by means of the very reflexion of these images God is made real to you and sells (to you) the fruit (of reality).
  • چشم ازین آب از حول حر می‌شود  ** عکس می‌بیند سد پر می‌شود 
  • By means of this Water the eye is freed from seeing double: it sees the reflexion, and the basket is filled (with fruit).
  • پس به معنی باغ باشد این نه آب  ** پس مشو عریان چو بلقیس از حباب 
  • Therefore this (Water) is really an orchard, not water: do not, then, like Bilqís, strip yourself from (fear of being splashed by) the waves.
  • بار گوناگونست بر پشت خران  ** هین به یک چون این خران را تو مران  3240
  • Diverse loads are (laid) upon the backs of asses: do not drive (all) these asses with one (and the same) stick.
  • بر یکی خر بار لعل و گوهرست  ** بر یکی خر بار سنگ و مرمرست 
  • One ass is laden with rubies and pearls, another with (common) stones and marble.
  • بر همه جوها تو این حکمت مران  ** اندرین جو ماه بین عکسش مخوان 
  • Do not apply this (uniform) principle to all rivers; in this River behold the Moon (itself), and do not call it a (mere) reflexion.
  • آب خضرست این نه آب دام و دد  ** هر چه اندر روی نماید حق بود 
  • This is the Water of Khizr, not the water drunk by herbivorous animals and beasts of prey: everything that appears in it is Real.
  • زین تگ جو ماه گوید من مهم  ** من نه عکسم هم‌حدیث و هم‌رهم 
  • From the bottom of this River the Moon cries, “I am the Moon, I am not a reflexion: I am conversing and travelling with (the River).
  • اندرین جو آنچ بر بالاست هست  ** خواه بالا خواه در وی دار دست  3245
  • That which is (in the world) above is in this River: take possession of it either (in the world) above or in that (River) as you please.
