- Every angel, according to their (different) degrees, has (a portion of) that radiance, consisting of three or four (pairs of) luminous wings,
- ز اجنحهی نور ثلاث او رباع ** بر مراتب هر ملک را آن شعاع
- Just as the wings of human intellects, amongst which there is great difference (in quality).
- همچو پرهای عقول انسیان ** که بسی فرق است شان اندر میان
- Hence the associate of every human being in good and evil is that angel who resembles him or her.

- کی ستاره حاجت استی ای ذلیل ** که بدی بر نور خورشید او دلیل
- The Moon (the Prophet) is saying to earth and cloud and shadow, “I was a man, but it is revealed to me (that your God is one God).
