قصد آن مه کرد اندر خیمه او ** عقل کو و از خلیفه خوف کو
He sought to embrace that moon (beauty) in her tent: where (at that time) was his reason and his dread of the Caliph?
چون زند شهوت درین وادی دهل ** چیست عقل تو فجل ابن الفجل
When lust beats the drum (of victory) in this vale, what is thy reason? A (worthless) radish and the son of a radish.
صد خلیفه گشته کمتر از مگس ** پیش چشم آتشینش آن نفس
To his fiery eye a hundred Caliphs seemed at that moment less than a gnat.
چون برون انداخت شلوار و نشست ** در میان پای زن آن زن‌پرست 3880
Postquam ille feminarum cultor bracas exuit et inter crura mulieris recubavit, [When that adorer of women threw off (his) trousers and sat between the woman’s legs,]
چون ذکر سوی مقر می‌رفت راست ** رستخیز و غلغل از لشکر بخاست
Quo tempore penis ejus ad sedem suam recte ibat, tumultus ingens et clamor militum exortus est. [When (his) penis went straight toward (her) seat (buttocks), a commotion and outcry arose from the army.]
برجهید و کون‌برهنه سوی صف ** ذوالفقاری هم‌چو آتش او به کف
Exsiliit et nudo podice in aciem (currebat), grasping a (flashing) scimitar in his hand. [He jumped up (and ran) naked of buttocks to the (army) ranks, grasping a fiery (flashing) scimitar in his hand.]
دید شیر نر سیه از نیستان ** بر زده بر قلب لشکر ناگهان
He saw that a fierce black lion from the jungle had suddenly rushed upon the centre of the army;
تازیان چون دیو در جوش آمده ** هر طویله و خیمه اندر هم زده
(That) the Arab horses were demoniacally excited, (that) every stable and tent was in confusion;
شیر نر گنبذ همی‌کرد از لغز ** در هوا چون موج دریا بیست گز 3885
(And that) the fierce lion from the covert was bounding twenty ells into the air, like billows of the sea.
پهلوان مردانه بود و بی‌حذر ** پیش شیر آمد چو شیر مست نر
The captain was manful and intrepid: he advanced, like a furious lion, to meet the lion.
