- این طلب در ما هم از ایجاد تست ** رستن از بیداد یا رب داد تست
- Without (our) seeking Thou hast given us this search, Thou hast opened to all the treasure of (Thy) beneficence.
- بیطلب تو این طلبمان دادهای ** گنج احسان بر همه بگشادهای
- How the hare brought to the beasts of chase the news that the lion had fallen into the well.
- مژده بردن خرگوش سوی نخجیران که شیر در چاه افتاد
- When the hare was gladdened by deliverance (from the lion), he began to run towards the beasts until (he came to) the desert.
- چون که خرگوش از رهایی شاد گشت ** سوی نخجیران دوان شد تا به دشت
- Having seen the lion miserably slain in the well, he was skipping joyously all the way to the meadow, 1340
- شیر را چون دید در چه کشته زار ** چرخ میزد شادمان تا مرغزار
- Clapping his hands because he had escaped from the hand of Death; fresh and dancing in the air, like bough and leaf.
- دست میزد چون رهید از دست مرگ ** سبز و رقصان در هوا چون شاخ و برگ
- Bough and leaf were set free from the prison of earth, lifted their heads, and became comrades of the wind;
- شاخ و برگ از حبس خاک آزاد شد ** سر بر آورد و حریف باد شد

- برگها چون شاخ را بشکافتند ** تا به بالای درخت اشتافتند

- با زبان شطاه شکر خدا ** میسراید هر بر و برگی جدا
- Saying, “The Bounteous Giver nourished our root until the tree grew big and stood upright.” 1345
- که بپرورد اصل ما را ذو العطا ** تا درخت استغلظ آمد و استوی
- (Even so) the spirits bound in clay, when they escape glad at heart from their (prisons of) clay,
- جانهای بسته اندر آب و گل ** چون رهند از آب و گلها شاد دل
