The excuse made by the hypocrite was bad, not good, because it was (only) on their lips, not in their hearts.
از منافق عذر رد آمد نه خوب ** زانک در لب بود آن نه در قلوب
He (the hypocrite) has the smell of the apple, but no part of the apple (itself); and in him (even) the smell is only for the purpose of (coming into) contact (with the true believers).
بوی سیبش هست جزو سیب نیست ** بو درو جز از پی آسیب نیست
The charge of a woman in battle does not break the (hostile) ranks; nay, her plight becomes pitiable.
حملهی زن در میان کارزار ** نشکند صف بلک گردد کارزار
Though you see her take the sword (and fight) like a lion amidst the ranks, (yet) her hand trembles.2460
