مصطفی کرد این وصیت با بنون ** اطعموا الاذناب مما تاکلون 3975
Mustafá (Mohammed) gave his (spiritual) sons this injunction —Feed your dependents with what ye eat (yourselves).’”
دیگران را بس به طبع آوردهای ** در صبوری چست و راغب کردهای
You have often restored others to a good disposition: you have made them ready and willing to show fortitude.
هم به طبعآور بمردی خویش را ** پیشوا کن عقل صبراندیش را
(Now) manfully restore yourself too to (that) disposition: take the reason that meditates on fortitude as your guide.

When the guidance of fortitude becomes a wing for you, your spirit will soar to the zenith of the (Divine) Throne and Footstool.

صبر بگزیدند و صدیقین شدند ** بعد از آن سوی بلاد چین شدند
They chose fortitude (as their guide) and became true witnesses; then they set off towards the land of China.
والدین و ملک را بگذاشتند ** راه معشوق نهان بر داشتند
They left their parents and kingdom, they took the way to the hidden beloved.
همچو ابراهیم ادهم از سریر ** عشقشان بیپا و سر کرد و فقیر
Like Ibráhím son of Adham, Love (banished them) from the throne (and) made them footless and headless and destitute.
یا چو ابراهیم مرسل سرخوشی ** خویش را افکند اندر آتشی
Either, like Abraham who was sent (as a prophet), one intoxicated (with love) cast himself into a fire,
