  • نامصور یا مصور پیش اوست ** کاو همه مغز است و بیرون شد ز پوست‏

  • If you are blind, ’tis no crime in the blind; (but) if not, go (persevere in purifying yourself), for patience is the key to success. 70

  • The medicine of patience will burn the veils over your eye and will also effect the opening of your breast (to Divine knowledge).
  • پرده‏های دیده را داروی صبر ** هم بسوزد هم بسازد شرح صدر
