  • از جمادی چونک انکارت برست ** هم ازین انکار حشرت شد درست
  • Since thy (former) denial arose from the state of lifelessness (irrationality), so by this (present) denial (the certainty of) thy resurrection is established.

  • پس مثال تو چو آن حلقه‌زنیست ** کز درونش خواجه گوید خواجه نیست
  • Hence the (appropriate) parable of thee is (a case) like (that of) the person who knocks at the door (of a house), and the master replies to him from within, saying, “The master is not (here).”

  • حلقه‌زن زین نیست دریابد که هست ** پس ز حلقه بر ندارد هیچ دست
  • From this “is not” the person knocking perceives that he is (there), and consequently does not take his hand off the door- ring at all.

  • پس هم انکارت مبین می‌کند ** کز جماد او حشر صد فن می‌کند
  • Therefore the very fact of thy denial is making it clear that He (God) brings about manifold resurrections from lifeless matter.

  • چند صنعت رفت ای انکار تا ** آب و گل انکار زاد از هل اتی 900
  • How much (Divine) artifice passed (was expended), O thou denial (incarnate), till the water and clay (of thy original nature) produced denial from (the state signified by the words) Hal atá!

  • آب وگل می‌گفت خود انکار نیست ** بانگ می‌زد بی‌خبر که اخبار نیست
  • The water and clay was really saying, “There is no denial” (was really making an affirmation): it was crying, ‘There is no affirmation” (was uttering a denial), unaware (of the fact that its denial was an implicit affirmation).

  • من بگویم شرح این از صد طریق ** لیک خاطر لغزد از گفت دقیق
  • I would expound this (topic) in a hundred ways, but the (reader’s) mind would stumble at the subtle discourse.

  • چاره کردن سلیمان علیه‌السلام در احضار تخت بلقیس از سبا
  • How Solomon, on whom be peace, devised a plan for bringing the throne of Bilqís from Sabá.

  • گفت عفریتی که تختش را به فن ** حاضر آرم تا تو زین مجلس شدن
  • A certain ‘Ifrít (demon) said, “By (my) art I will bring her throne here before thy departure from this council.”

  • گفت آصف من به اسم اعظمش ** حاضر آرم پیش تو در یک دمش
  • Ásaf said, “By means of the greatest Name (of God) I will bring it here into thy presence in a single moment.”

  • گرچه عفریت اوستاد سحر بود ** لیک آن از نفخ آصف رو نمود 905
  • Though the ‘Ifrít was a master of magic, yet that (miracle) was displayed by the breath (spiritual power) of Ásaf.
