He (such a king) is seated inwardly (in spirit) amidst the rose-garden (of union with God); outwardly (in the body) he is acting as a hádí amongst his friends.
شسته در باطن میان گلستان ** ظاهر آحادی میان دوستان
The garden is going with him wherever he goes, but it is (always) being concealed from the people.
بوستان با او روان هر جا رود ** لیک آن از خلق پنهان میشود
The fruit is making entreaty, saying, “Eat of me”; the Water of Life is come, saying, “Drink of me.”
میوهها لایهکنان کز من بچر ** آب حیوان آمده کز من بخور
Make a circuit of heaven without wing and pinion, like the sun and like the full-moon and like the new moon.1105
طوف میکن بر فلک بیپر و بال ** همچو خورشید و چو بدر و چون هلال
