  • And say, “I bring Thee a heart, O King: there is no better heart than this in Sabzawár.”
  • که دل آوردم ترا ای شهریار  ** به ازین دل نبود اندر سبزوار 
  • He (God) will answer thee, saying, “O audacious man, is this a graveyard that thou shouldst bring a dead heart hither?
  • گویدت این گورخانه‌ست ای جری  ** که دل مرده بدینجا آوری 
  • Go, bring the Heart that is kingly, from which is (derived) the security of the Sabzawár of (mundane) existence.”
  • رو بیاور آن دلی کو شاه‌خوست  ** که امان سبزوار کون ازوست 
  • You may say that that Heart is hidden from this world, because darkness and light are opposites.
  • گویی آن دل زین جهان پنهان بود  ** زانک ظلمت با ضیا ضدان بود 
  • From the Day of Alast there is an hereditary enmity of that Heart to the Sabzawár of the carnal nature; 895
  • دشمنی آن دل از روز الست  ** سبزوار طبع را میراثی است 
  • For it is a falcon, while this world is the city of the crow: the sight of one who is uncongenial inflicts pain upon him who is not his congener;
  • زانک او بازست و دنیا شهر زاغ  ** دیدن ناجنس بر ناجنس داغ 
  • And if he (the worldling) behave with mildness (complaisance), he is acting hypocritically: he is seeking an advantage for himself by conciliating (the owner of the Heart).
  • ور کند نرمی نفاقی می‌کند  ** ز استمالت ارتفاقی می‌کند 
  • He assents, not on account of sincere feeling, (but) in order that the admonisher may curtail his long admonition;
  • می‌کند آری نه از بهر نیاز  ** تا که ناصح کم کند نصح دراز 
  • For this vile carrion-seeking crow hath a hundred thousand manifold tricks.
  • زانک این زاغ خس مردارجو  ** صد هزاران مکر دارد تو به تو 
  • If they (the saints) accept his hypocrisy, he is saved: his hypocrisy becomes identical with the sincerity of him who benefits by instruction, 900
  • گر پذیرند آن نفاقش را رهید  ** شد نفاقش عین صدق مستفید
