  • بشنو اکنون اصل انکار از چه خاست ** ز آن که کل را گونه گونه جزوهاست‌‌
  • Now hear the origin of their denial, whence it arose: (it arose) from the fact that the Whole hath various parts.

  • جزو کل نی جزوها نسبت به کل ** نی چو بوی گل که باشد جزو گل‌‌ 2905
  • The parts of the Whole are not parts in relation to the Whole — (they are) not like the scent of the rose, which is a part of the rose.

  • لطف سبزه جزو لطف گل بود ** بانگ قمری جزو آن بلبل بود
  • The beauty of (all) green herbs is a part of the Rose's beauty, the coo of the turtle-dove is a part of that Nightingale.

  • گر شوم مشغول اشکال و جواب ** تشنگان را کی توانم داد آب‌‌
  • If I become occupied with a difficulty (difficult question) and the answer (explanation), how shall I be able to give water to the thirsty?

  • گر تو اشکالی به کلی و حرج ** صبر کن الصبر مفتاح الفرج‌‌
  • If you are wholly perplexed and in straits, have patience: patience is the key to joy.

  • احتما کن احتما ز اندیشه‌‌ها ** فکر شیر و گور و دلها بیشه‌‌ها
  • Abstain from (distracting) thoughts, abstain: thought is (like) the lion and the wild ass, and (men's) hearts are the thickets (which they haunt).

  • احتماها بر دواها سرور است ** ز آن که خاریدن فزونی گر است‌‌ 2910
  • Acts of abstinence are superior to medicines, because scratching is an increase (aggravation) of the itch.

  • احتما اصل دوا آمد یقین ** احتما کن قوت جان را ببین‌‌
  • Assuredly abstinence is the first principle of medicine: abstain, and behold the strength of thy spirit.

  • قابل این گفته‌‌ها شو گوش‌‌وار ** تا که از زر سازمت من گوشوار
  • Receive these words, like the (open) ear, that I may make for you an earring of gold:

  • حلقه در گوش مه زرگر شوی ** تا به ماه و تا ثریا بر شوی‌‌
  • (Then) you will become a ring in the ear of (devoted to) the Moon that works in gold, you will ascend to the moon and the Pleiades.
