Rumi's Masnavi - Also, in respect of form, your hands and feet and hair are a hundred times as much as the contour of the eye;

Also, in respect of form, your hands and feet and hair are a hundred times as much as the contour of the eye;

هم به صورت دست و پا و پشم تو ** هست صد چندان که نقش چشم تو

But this (fact) is not hidden from you, that the two eyes are the choicest of all (your) members.

لیک پوشیده نباشد بر تو این ** کز همه اعضا دو چشم آمد گزین‏

By one thought that comes into the mind a hundred worlds are overturned in a single moment.

از یک اندیشه که آید در درون ** صد جهان گردد به یک دم سر نگون‏

If the body of the Sultan is, in form (appearance), one (only), (yet) hundreds of thousands of soldiers run behind (it). 1030

جسم سلطان گر به صورت یک بود ** صد هزاران لشکرش در پی دود

Again, the figure and form of the excellent King are ruled by one invisible thought.

باز شکل و صورت شاه صفی ** هست محکوم یکی فکر خفی‏

Behold people without end who, moved by one thought, have gone over the earth like a flood;

خلق بی‏پایان ز یک اندیشه بین ** گشته چون سیلی روانه بر زمین‏

Small is that thought in the people's eyes, but like a flood it swallowed and swept away the world.

هست آن اندیشه پیش خلق خرد ** لیک چون سیلی جهان را خورد و برد

So, when you see that from a thought every craft in the world (arises and) subsists—

پس چو می‏بینی که از اندیشه‏ای ** قایم است اندر جهان هر پیشه‏ای‏

(That) houses and palaces and cities, mountains and plains and rivers, 1035

خانه‏ها و قصرها و شهرها ** کوهها و دشتها و نهرها

Earth and ocean as well as sun and sky, are living (derive their life) from it as fishes from the sea—

هم زمین و بحر و هم مهر و فلک ** زنده از وی همچو کز دریا سمک‏
