هم به صورت دست و پا و پشم تو ** هست صد چندان که نقش چشم تو

Also, in respect of form, your hands and feet and hair are a hundred times as much as the contour of the eye;

لیک پوشیده نباشد بر تو این ** کز همه اعضا دو چشم آمد گزین‏

But this (fact) is not hidden from you, that the two eyes are the choicest of all (your) members.

از یک اندیشه که آید در درون ** صد جهان گردد به یک دم سر نگون‏

By one thought that comes into the mind a hundred worlds are overturned in a single moment.

جسم سلطان گر به صورت یک بود ** صد هزاران لشکرش در پی دود 1030

If the body of the Sultan is, in form (appearance), one (only), (yet) hundreds of thousands of soldiers run behind (it).

باز شکل و صورت شاه صفی ** هست محکوم یکی فکر خفی‏

Again, the figure and form of the excellent King are ruled by one invisible thought.

خلق بی‏پایان ز یک اندیشه بین ** گشته چون سیلی روانه بر زمین‏

Behold people without end who, moved by one thought, have gone over the earth like a flood;

هست آن اندیشه پیش خلق خرد ** لیک چون سیلی جهان را خورد و برد

Small is that thought in the people's eyes, but like a flood it swallowed and swept away the world.

پس چو می‏بینی که از اندیشه‏ای ** قایم است اندر جهان هر پیشه‏ای‏

So, when you see that from a thought every craft in the world (arises and) subsists—

خانه‏ها و قصرها و شهرها ** کوهها و دشتها و نهرها 1035

(That) houses and palaces and cities, mountains and plains and rivers,

هم زمین و بحر و هم مهر و فلک ** زنده از وی همچو کز دریا سمک‏

Earth and ocean as well as sun and sky, are living (derive their life) from it as fishes from the sea—
