  • گر امین آیید سوی اهل راز ** وا رهید از سر کله مانند باز 3335
  • If ye come loyally to the possessors of the mystery, ye will be freed from the hood, like a falcon—

  • سر کلاه چشم‌بند گوش‌بند ** که ازو بازست مسکین و نژند
  • The hood that binds eye and ear, whereby the falcon is (made) wretched and abject.

  • زان کله مر چشم بازان را سدست ** که همه میلش سوی جنس خودست
  • The hood is (placed as) a blind on the eyes of falcons because its (the falcon's) whole desire is for its own kind.

  • چون برید از جنس با شه گشت یار ** بر گشاید چشم او را بازدار
  • When it has been severed from its kind, it associates with the king: the falconer unveils its eye.

  • راند دیوان را حق از مرصاد خویش ** عقل جزوی را ز استبداد خویش
  • God drove the devils from His place of watch, (He drove) the particular intellect from its autonomy,

  • که سری کم کن نه‌ای تو مستبد ** بلک شاگرد دلی و مستعد 3340
  • Saying, “Do not domineer: thou art not autonomous; nay, thou art the pupil of the heart and predisposed (to learn from it).

  • رو بر دل رو که تو جزو دلی ** هین که بنده‌ی پادشاه عادلی
  • Go to the heart, go, for thou art a part of the heart: take heed, for thou art a slave of the just King.”

  • بندگی او به از سلطانیست ** که انا خیر دم شیطانیست
  • To be His slave is better than being a sovereign, for “I am better” is the word of Satan.

  • فرق بین و برگزین تو ای حبیس ** بندگی آدم از کبر بلیس
  • Do thou see the distinction and pick out (choose by preference), O prisoner, the slavery of Adam from the pride of Iblís.

  • گفت آنک هست خورشید ره او ** حرف طوبی هر که ذلت نفسه
  • He who is the Sun of the Way uttered the saying, “Good (túbá) betide every one whose carnal soul is abased!”
