  • (For) though he was blind, he was capable of receiving light; (but) from showing this aversion he becomes blind and blue (miserably lost).
  • قابل ضو بود اگر چه کور بود  ** شد ازین اعراض او کور و کبود 
  • Jesus says to him, “O blind man, cling to me with both hands: I have a precious collyrium.

  • Give up the business that hath no foot or head (permanence): hark, old donkey, get for thyself a Pír! 4120
  • کار و باری که ندارد پا و سر  ** ترک کن هی پیر خر ای پیر خر 
  • May none but the Pír be (thy) master and captain!—not the Pír (old man) of the rolling sky, but the Pír of right guidance.
  • غیر پیر استاد و سرلشکر مباد  ** پیر گردون نی ولی پیر رشاد 
  • The devotee of darkness sees the light immediately as soon as he becomes subject to (the authority of) the Pír.
