از در دل و اهل دل آب حیات ** چند نوشیدی و وا شد چشمهات
Much food from the door of the spiritual, (in the form) of (mystical) intoxication and ecstasy and selflessness, didst thou cast upon thy soul.

Afterwards, through greed, thou didst abandon that door, and (now), through greed, thou art going round about every shop.295

From all sides the people would gather—blind and lame and palsied and clothed in rags—
جمع گشتندی ز هر اطراف خلق ** از ضریر و لنگ و شل و اهل دلق
At the door of the cell of Jesus in the morning, that he by his breath might deliver them from tribulation.300
بر در آن صومعه‌ی عیسی صباح ** تا بدم اوشان رهاند از جناح
As soon as he finished his litanies, that man of goodly religion (Jesus) would go forth at morning tide,
او چو فارغ گشتی از اوراد خویش ** چاشتگه بیرون شدی آن خوب‌کیش
