  • We all have been parts of Adam, we have heard those melodies in Paradise.
  • ما همه اجزای آدم بوده‌ایم ** در بهشت آن لحنها بشنوده‌ایم
  • Although the water and earth (of our bodies) have caused a doubt to fall upon us, something of those (melodies) comes (back) to our memory;
  • گرچه بر ما ریخت آب و گل شکی ** یادمان آمد از آنها چیزکی
  • But since it is mingled with the earth of sorrow, how should this treble and bass give (us) the same delight?
  • لیک چون آمیخت با خاک کرب ** کی دهند این زیر و آن بم آن طرب
  • When water is mingled with urine and stalings, its temperament is made bitter and acid by the commixture.
  • آب چون آمیخت با بول و کمیز ** گشت ز آمیزش مزاجش تلخ و تیز
  • There is a small quantity of water in his (a man's) body: suppose it is urine, (yet) it will extinguish a fire. 740
  • چیزکی از آب هستش در جسد ** بول گیرش آتشی را می‌کشد
  • If the water has been defiled, (still) this natural property of it remains, for by its nature it allays the fire of grief.
  • گر نجس شد آب این طبعش بماند ** که آتش غم را به طبع خود نشاند
  • Therefore samá‘ (music) is the food of lovers (of God), since therein is the phantasy of composure (tranquillity of mind).
  • پس غدای عاشقان آمد سماع ** که درو باشد خیال اجتماع
  • From (hearing) sounds and pipings the mental phantasies gather a (great) strength; nay, they become forms (in the imagination).
  • قوتی گیرد خیالات ضمیر ** بلک صورت گردد از بانگ و صفیر
  • The fire of love is made keen (inflamed) by melodies, just as the fire (ardour) of the man who dropped walnuts (into the water).
  • آتش عشق از نواها گشت تیز ** آن چنان که آتش آن جوزریز
  • Story of the thirsty man who dropped walnuts from the top of a walnut-tree into the water-brook that was in the hollow, without reaching the water (himself), in order that he might hear the sound made by the walnuts falling on the water, which thrilled him with joy as (though it were) sweet music.
  • حکایت آن مرد تشنه کی از سر جوز بن جوز می‌ریخت در جوی آب کی در گو بود و به آب نمی‌رسید تا به افتادن جوز بانگ آب# بشنود و او را چو سماع خوش بانگ آب اندر طرب می‌آورد
  • The water was in a deep place: the thirsty man went up the tree and scattered the walnuts one by one. 745
  • در نغولی بود آب آن تشنه راند ** بر درخت جوز جوزی می‌فشاند
