  • ارمغان دادند کای صوفی تو نیز  ** او برون انداخت نستد هیچ چیز 
  • They gave (him) a present (from the battle-field), saying, “Thou too, O Súfí!” (but) he cast it out (of the tent) and would not take anything.

  • پس بگفتندش که خشمینی چرا  ** گفت من محروم ماندم از غزا 
  • Then they said to him, “Why art thou angry?” He answered, “I have been deprived of (my share in) the fighting.”

  • زان تلطف هیچ صوفی خوش نشد  ** که میان غزو خنجر کش نشد 
  • The Súfí was not at all pleased with that act of kindness, because he had not drawn the sword in the holy war.

  • برد صوفی آن اسیر بسته را  ** در پس خرگه که آرد او غزا 
  • The Súfí led the pinioned prisoner behind the tent in order to wage the holy war.

  • دیر ماند آن صوفی آنجا با اسیر  ** قوم گفتا دیر ماند آنجا فقیر 
  • The Súfí tarried with the prisoner a long while; the party (of soldiers) said, “The dervish has made a long stay there.

  • کافر بسته دو دست او کشتنیست  ** بسملش را موجب تاخیر چیست 
  • An infidel with both hands tied! (Surely) he is ready for killing: what is the cause of this delay in slaughtering him?”

  • آمد آن یک در تفحص در پیش  ** دید کافر را به بالای ویش  3750
  • One of them went after him to investigate: he found the infidel on the top of him (the Súfí),
