- You are like Pharaoh, blind and blind-hearted: complaisant to your enemy and treating the guiltless with ignominy. 1920
- همچو فرعونی تو کور و کوردل ** با عدو خوش بیگناهان را مذل
- How long, O (imitator of) Pharaoh, will you slay the innocent and pamper your noxious body?
- چند فرعونا کشی بیجرم را ** مینوازی مر تن پر غرم را
- His understanding was superior to that of (other) kings: God's ordainment had made him without understanding and blind.
- عقل او بر عقل شاهان میفزود ** حکم حق بیعقل و کورش کرده بود
- God's seal upon the eye and ear of the intelligence makes him (the intelligent man) an animal, (even) if he is a Plato.
- مهر حق بر چشم و بر گوش خرد ** گر فلاطونست حیوانش کند
- God's ordainment comes into view on the tablet (of the heart) in such wise as Báyazíd's prediction of the hidden (future event).
- حکم حق بر لوح میآید پدید ** آنچنان که حکم غیب بایزید
- How Shaykh Abu ’l-Hasan, may God be well-pleased with him, heard Báyazíd's announcement of his coming into existence and of what should happen to him.
- شنیدن شیخ ابوالحسن رضی الله عنه خبر دادن ابویزید را و بود او و احوال او
- It came to pass just as he (Báyazíd) had said. Bu ’l-Hasan heard from the people that (prediction), 1925
- همچنان آمد که او فرموده بود ** بوالحسن از مردمان آن را شنود
- (Namely), “Hasan will be my disciple and my true follower (umma), and will receive lessons from my tomb at every dawn.”
- که حسن باشد مرید و امتم ** درس گیرد هر صباح از تربتم
- He (Abu ’l-Hasan) said, “I have also seen him in a dream and have heard this from the spirit of the Shaykh.”
- گفت من هم نیز خوابش دیدهام ** وز روان شیخ این بشنیدهام
- Every dawn he would set his face towards the grave and stand (there) in attention till the forenoon,
- هر صباحی رو نهادی سوی گور ** ایستادی تا ضحی اندر حضور
- And either the apparition of the Shaykh would come to him, or without anything spoken his difficulty would be solved,
- یا مثال شیخ پیشش آمدی ** یا که بیگفتی شکالش حل شدی
