The captain was manful and intrepid: he advanced, like a furious lion, to meet the lion.
پهلوان مردانه بود و بیحذر ** پیش شیر آمد چو شیر مست نر
He smote (it) with his sword and clove its head; (then) at once he hastened (back) to the tent of the beauty.
زد به شمشیر و سرش را بر شکافت ** زود سوی خیمهی مهرو شتافت
Ubi sese puellae formosissimae ostendit, penis ejus itidem erectus erat. [When he showed himself to the hourí (lovely woman), his (organ of) manhood was erect in the same manner (as before).]
چونک خود را او بدان حوری نمود ** مردی او همچنین بر پای بود
Pugna congressus erat cum tali leone: penis ejus erectus manebat nec languore jacuerat. [He joined in battle with such a lion: (yet) his manhood remained erect and did not rest (go limp).]
با چنان شیری به چالش گشت جفت ** مردی او مانده بر پای و نخفت
Illa diva, facie venusta lunae simili praedita, virilitatis ejus admiratione obstupuit. [That moon-faced idol, sweet of countenance, was amazed at his manhood.]3890
آن بت شیرینلقای ماهرو ** در عجب در ماند از مردی او
Protinus cum eo magna cupidine coivit: illae duae animae statim unitae evaserunt. [She joined with him (eagerly) in that moment with lust: those two souls immediately became united.]
جفت شد با او به شهوت آن زمان ** متحد گشتند حالی آن دو جان
Through the union of these two souls with one another, there will come to them from the Unseen World another soul.
ز اتصال این دو جان با همدگر ** میرسد از غیبشان جانی دگر
It will appear by the road of birth, if there be naught to waylay (prevent) its conception.
رو نماید از طریق زادنی ** گر نباشد از علوقش رهزنی
Wherever two persons unite in a love or hate, a third will certainly be born;
هر کجا دو کس به مهری یا به کین ** جمع آید ثالثی زاید یقین
But those forms are born in the Unseen World: when you go thither, you will see them in (clear) view.3895
لیک اندر غیب زاید آن صور ** چون روی آن سو ببینی در نظر
