  • جنبشی بایست اندر اجتهاد ** تا که دوغ آن روغن از دل باز داد
  • The butter in the buttermilk is (invisible) like non-existence; the buttermilk has raised its banner (has become manifest) in existence.

  • دوغ روغن ناگرفتست و کهن ** تا بنگزینی بنه خرجش مکن

  • گر نبودی جنبش آن بادها ** شیر مرده کی بجستی در هوا
