  • پیش از استحقاق بخشیده عطا ** دیده از ما جمله کفران و خطا
  • Who hast bestowed the gift before the merit (was existent), having suffered from us the whole (sum) of ingratitude and transgression:

  • ای عظیم از ما گناهان عظیم ** تو توانی عفو کردن در حریم
  • O Almighty One, Thou art able to pardon our great sins in privacy.

  • ما ز آز و حرص خود را سوختیم ** وین دعا را هم ز تو آموختیم 2215
  • We have burnt ourselves from concupiscence and greed, and even this invocation we have learned from Thee.

  • حرمت آن که دعا آموختی ** در چنین ظلمت چراغ افروختی
  • (We beseech Thee) in reverence for Thy having taught (us) to invoke (Thee) and for having lighted the lamp (of invocation) amidst darkness like this.”

  • همچنین می‌رفت بر لفظش دعا ** آن زمان چون مادران با وفا

  • آن دعای بی خودان خود دیگرست ** آن دعا زو نیست گفت داورست

  • آن دعا حق می‌کند چون او فناست ** آن دعا و آن اجابت از خداست 2220
