  • The unspiritual thorn wishes for autumn, for autumn, in order that it may jostle with (contend as a rival with) the rose-garden,
  • خار بی‌‌معنی خزان خواهد خزان ** تا زند پهلوی خود با گلستان‌‌

  • And that it (autumn) may hide the (fair) colour of that (the rose) and the rust (foul colour) of this (the thorn), so that you may not see the colour of that and the colour of this.
  • تا بپوشد حسن آن و ننگ این ** تا نبینی رنگ آن و رنگ این‌‌

  • Therefore autumn is its (the thorn's) Spring and life, (for then) the (worthless) stone and the pure ruby appear one.
  • پس خزان او را بهار است و حیات ** یک نماید سنگ و یاقوت زکات‌‌

  • The Gardener knows that (difference) even in autumn, but the One's sight is better than the world's sight. 2925
  • باغبان هم داند آن را در خزان ** لیک دید یک به از دید جهان‌‌

  • Truly that One Person is (essentially) the (whole) world: he is unaware of evil (does not know evil as such). Every star in the sky is part of the Moon.
  • خود جهان آن یک کس است او ابله است ** هر ستاره بر فلک جزو مه است‌‌

  • Therefore every fair form and shape (in the world) is crying, “Good news! good news! Lo, here comes the Spring.”
  • پس همی‌‌گویند هر نقش و نگار ** مژده مژده نک همی‌‌آید بهار

  • So long as the blossom is shining like a coat of mail, how should the fruits display their knobs?
  • تا بود تابان شکوفه چون زره ** کی کند آن میوه‌‌ها پیدا گره‌‌

  • When the blossom is shed, the fruit comes to a head: when the body is shattered, the spirit lifts up its head.
  • چون شکوفه ریخت میوه سر کند ** چون که تن بشکست جان سر بر زند

  • The fruit is the reality, the blossom is its form: the blossom is the good news, the fruit is the bounty (given as a reward) for it. 2930
  • میوه معنی و شکوفه صورتش ** آن شکوفه مژده میوه نعمتش‌‌

  • When the blossom was shed, the fruit became visible: when that diminished this began to increase.
  • چون شکوفه ریخت میوه شد پدید ** چون که آن کم شد شد این اندر مزید
