زان سلام او سلام حق شدست ** کتش اندر دودمان خود زدست
His (the saint's) salaam has become the salaam of God because he has set fire to the household of self.
مرده است از خود شده زنده برب ** زان بود اسرار حقش در دو لب
He has died to self and become living through the Lord: hence the mysteries of God are on his lips.
مردن تن در ریاضت زندگیست ** رنج این تن روح را پایندگیست3365
The death of the body in self-discipline is life: the sufferings of this body are (the cause of) everlastingness to the spirit.
گوش بنهاده بد آن مرد خبیث ** می‌شنود او از خروسش آن حدیث
That wicked man had lent ear: he was hearing from his cock the news (of his death).
دویدن آن شخص به سوی موسی به زنهار چون از خروس خبر مرگ خود شنید
How that person ran to Moses for protection when he heard from the cock the announcement of his death.
چون شنید اینها دوان شد تیز و تفت ** بر در موسی کلیم الله رفت
When he heard these things, he started running in hot haste: he went to the door of Moses, with whom God conversed.
رو همی‌مالید در خاک او ز بیم ** که مرا فریاد رس زین ای کلیم
He was rubbing his face in the dust from fear, saying, “Save me from this (doom), O Kalím!”
گفت رو بفروش خود را و بره ** چونک استا گشته‌ای بر جه ز چه
He (Moses) said, “Go, sell thyself and escape! Since thou hast become expert (in avoiding loss), jump out of the pit (of death)!
بر مسلمانان زیان انداز تو ** کیسه و همیانها را کن دوتو3370
Throw the loss upon true believers! Make thy purses and scrips double (in size)!
من درون خشت دیدم این قضا ** که در آیینه عیان شد مر ترا
I beheld in the brick this destiny which to thee became visible (only) in the mirror.
عاقل اول بیند آخر را بدل ** اندر آخر بیند از دانش مقل
The intelligent man sees with his heart the end (final result) at the first (in the beginning); he that is lacking in knowledge sees it (only) at the end.”
