  • How would these four seasons be flourishing unless this glow and weeping were the origin? 140
  • کی بدی معمور این هر چار فصل  ** گر نبودی این تف و این گریه اصل 
  • Since the burning (heat) of the sun and the weeping of the clouds in the world are keeping the world fresh and sweet,
  • سوز مهر و گریه‌ی ابر جهان  ** چون همی دارد جهان را خوش‌دهان 
  • Keep the sun of your intelligence burning, keep your eye glistening with tears like the cloud!
  • آفتاب عقل را در سوز دار  ** چشم را چون ابر اشک‌افروز دار 
  • You must needs have a weeping eye, like the little child: do not eat the bread (of worldliness), for that bread takes away your water (spiritual excellence).
  • چشم گریان بایدت چون طفل خرد  ** کم خور آن نان را که نان آب تو برد 
  • When the body is in leaf (well-furnished), on that account by day and night the bough, (which is) the soul, is shedding its leaves and is in autumn.
  • تن چو با برگست روز و شب از آن  ** شاخ جان در برگ‌ریزست و خزان 
  • The leafage (flourishing state) of the body is the leaflessness (unprovidedness) of the soul. Be quick! You must let this (body) dwindle and that (soul) increase. 145
  • برگ تن بی‌برگی جانست زود  ** این بباید کاستن آن را فزود 
  • Lend unto God, give a loan of this leafage of the body, that in exchange a garden may grow in your heart.
  • اقرضوا الله قرض ده زین برگ تن  ** تا بروید در عوض در دل چمن 
  • Give a loan, diminish this food of your body, that there may appear the face (vision) of (that which) eye hath not seen.
  • قرض ده کم کن ازین لقمه‌ی تنت  ** تا نماید وجه لا عین رات 
  • When the body empties itself of dung, He (God) fills it with musk and glorious pearls.
  • تن ز سرگین خویش چون خالی کند  ** پر ز مشک و در اجلالی کند 
  • He (such a person) gives this filth and gets purity (in return): his body enjoys (what is signified by the words) He will purify you.
  • زین پلیدی بدهد و پاکی برد  ** از یطهرکم تن او بر خورد
