انت سر کاشف اسرارنا ** انت فجر مفجر انهارنا
O Thou whose Essence is hidden while Thy gifts are sensible, Thou art as the water and we as the millstone.3310

Thou art as the wind and we as the dust: the wind is hidden while the dust blown by it is plainly visible.
انت کالریح و نحن کالغبار ** تختفی الریح و غبراها جهار
Thou art the Spring, we are fair as the verdant orchard: it (the Spring) is hidden while its bounty is manifest.
تو بهاری ما چو باغ سبز خوش ** او نهان و آشکارا بخششش
Thou art as the spirit, we are like hand and foot: the closing and opening of the hand is due to the spirit.
تو چو جانی ما مثال دست و پا ** قبض و بسط دست از جان شد روا
Thou art as the reason, we are like this tongue: this tongue hath its (power of) expression from the reason.
تو چو عقلی ما مثال این زبان ** این زبان از عقل دارد این بیان
