توبه آرند و خدا توبه‌پذیر ** امر او گیرند و او نعم الامیر
And who repent, for God is ready to accept repentance, and cleave to His command, for a goodly Commander is He!
چون بر آرند از پشیمانی حنین ** عرش لرزد از انین المذنبین 3625
When, (moved) by sorrow, they raise a piteous cry, the highest Heaven trembles at the moaning of the sinners.
آن‌چنان لرزد که مادر بر ولد ** دستشان گیرد به بالا می‌کشد
It trembles even as a mother for her child: it takes them by the hand and draws them upward,
کای خداتان وا خریده از غرور ** نک ریاض فضل و نک رب غفور
Saying, “O ye whom God hath redeemed from delusion, behold the gardens of (Divine) grace and behold the forgiving Lord!
بعد ازینتان برگ و رزق جاودان ** از هوای حق بود نه از ناودان
Henceforth ye have everlasting provision and sustenance from God's air, not from the gutter (on the roof).”
چونک دریا بر وسایط رشک کرد ** تشنه چون ماهی به ترک مشک کرد
Inasmuch as the Sea is jealous of intermediaries, he that is thirsty as a fish takes leave of the water-skin.

دست‌بوس شاه کردند و وداع ** پس بدیشان گفت آن شاه مطاع
They kissed the King's hand and bade him farewell; then the King, (who is) obeyed (by all), said to them:
هر کجاتان دل کشد عازم شوید ** فی امان الله دست افشان روید
“Direct your course whithersoever your heart (inclination) may lead you, go (your way) under the protection of God, waving your hands (dancing joyously).
