هیچ گرگی در نرفتی اندر آن ** گوسفندی هم نگشتی ز آن نشان

ز آتش شهوت نسوزد اهل دین ** باقیان را برده تا قعر زمین

The water and clay, when it fed on the breath of Jesus, spread wings and pinions, became a bird, and flew.865
آب و گل چون از دم عیسی چرید ** بال و پر بگشاد مرغی شد پرید
Your glorification (of God) is an exhalation from the water and clay (of your body): it became a bird of Paradise through the breathing (into it) of your heart's sincerity.
هست تسبیحت بخار آب و گل ** مرغ جنت شد ز نفخ صدق دل
Mount Mount Sinai, from (seeing) the radiance of Moses, began to dance, became a perfect Súfí, and was freed from blemish.
کوه طور از نور موسی شد به رقص ** صوفی کامل شد و رست او ز نقص
