  • هر زمان دل را دگر میلی دهم ** هرنفس بر دل دگر داغی نهم
  • Every instant I give to the heart a different desire, every moment I lay upon the heart a different brand.

  • کل اصباح لنا شان جدید ** کل شیء عن مرادی لا یحید 1640
  • At every dawn I have a new employment: nothing turns aside from that (course) which I have willed.”

  • در حدیث آمد که دل همچون پریست ** در بیابانی اسیر صرصریست
  • It has come down in the Traditions (of the Prophet) that the heart is like a feather in a desert, the captive of a violent blast.

  • باد پر را هر طرف راند گزاف ** گه چپ و گه راست با صد اختلاف
  • The wind drives the feather recklessly in every direction, now left, now right, with a hundred diversities.

  • در حدیث دیگر این دل دان چنان ** کب جوشان ز آتش اندر قازغان
  • In another Tradition (the Prophet said), “Deem this heart to be as water boiling in a cauldron from (the heat of) fire.”

  • هر زمان دل را دگر رایی بود ** آن نه از وی لیک از جایی بود
  • At every time the heart has a different resolution: that (resolution) is not (derived) from it, but from a certain place.

  • پس چرا آمن شوی بر رای دل ** عهد بندی تا شوی آخر خجل 1645
  • Why, then, will you trust in the heart’s resolution and make a covenant, that in the end you should be shamed?

  • این هم از تاثیر حکمست و قدر ** چاه می‌بیینی و نتوانی حذر
  • This too is from the effect of the(Divine) ordinance and decree, (that) you see the pit and cannot take precaution.

  • نیست خود ازمرغ پران این عجب ** که نبیند دام و افتد در عطب
  • ‘Tis no wonder, indeed, for the flying bird not to see the snare (and so) fall into destruction;

  • این عجب که دام بیند هم وتد ** گر بخواهد ور نخواهد می‌فتد
  • The wonder is that it should see both the snare and the net-pin and fall (into the snare) willy-nilly.
