  • The Gardener knows that (difference) even in autumn, but the One's sight is better than the world's sight. 2925
  • باغبان هم داند آن را در خزان ** لیک دید یک به از دید جهان‌‌
  • Truly that One Person is (essentially) the (whole) world: he is unaware of evil (does not know evil as such). Every star in the sky is part of the Moon.
  • خود جهان آن یک کس است او ابله است ** هر ستاره بر فلک جزو مه است‌‌
  • Therefore every fair form and shape (in the world) is crying, “Good news! good news! Lo, here comes the Spring.”
  • پس همی‌‌گویند هر نقش و نگار ** مژده مژده نک همی‌‌آید بهار
  • So long as the blossom is shining like a coat of mail, how should the fruits display their knobs?
  • تا بود تابان شکوفه چون زره ** کی کند آن میوه‌‌ها پیدا گره‌‌
  • When the blossom is shed, the fruit comes to a head: when the body is shattered, the spirit lifts up its head.
  • چون شکوفه ریخت میوه سر کند ** چون که تن بشکست جان سر بر زند
  • The fruit is the reality, the blossom is its form: the blossom is the good news, the fruit is the bounty (given as a reward) for it. 2930
  • میوه معنی و شکوفه صورتش ** آن شکوفه مژده میوه نعمتش‌‌
  • When the blossom was shed, the fruit became visible: when that diminished this began to increase.
  • چون شکوفه ریخت میوه شد پدید ** چون که آن کم شد شد این اندر مزید
  • How should bread give strength until it is broken? How should uncrushed clusters (of grapes) yield wine?
  • تا که نان نشکست قوت کی دهد ** ناشکسته خوشه‌ها کی مَیْ دهد
  • Unless myrobalan is pounded up with medicines, how should the medicines by themselves become health-increasing (act as tonics)?
  • تا هلیله نشکند با ادویه ** کی شود خود صحت افزا ادویه‌‌
  • Concerning the qualities of the Pír (Spiritual Guide) and (the duty of) obedience to him.

  • ای ضیاء الحق حسام الدین بگیر ** یک دو کاغذ بر فزا در وصف پیر
  • Although thy slender body hath no strength, yet without the sun (of thy spirit) we have no light. 2935
  • گر چه جسم نازکت را زور نیست ** لیک بی‌‌خورشید ما را نور نیست‌‌
  • Although thou hast become the lighted wick and the glass (lamp), yet thou art the heart's leader (the Spiritual Guide): thou art the end of the thread (which serves as a clue).
  • گر چه مصباح و زجاجه گشته‌‌ای ** لیک سر خیل دلی سر رشته‌‌ای‌‌
  • Inasmuch as the end of the thread is in thy hand and will, the pearls (of spiritual knowledge) on the heart's necklace are (derived) from thy bounty.
  • چون سر رشته به دست و کام تست ** درهای عقد دل ز انعام تست‌‌
  • Write down what appertains to the Pír (Guide) who knows the Way:—Choose the Pír and regard him as the essence of the Way.
  • بر نویس احوال پیر راهدان ** پیر را بگزین و عین راه دان‌‌
  • The Pír is (like) summer, and (other) people are (like) the autumn month; (other) people are like night, and the Pír is the moon.
  • پیر تابستان و خلقان تیر ماه ** خلق مانند شب‌‌اند و پیر ماه‌‌
  • I have bestowed on (my) young Fortune (Husámu’ddín) the name of Pír (old), because he is (made) old by the Truth, not (made) old by Time. 2940
  • کرده‌‌ام بخت جوان را نام پیر ** کاو ز حق پیر است نز ایام پیر
  • So old is he that he hath no beginning: there is no rival to such a unique Pearl.
  • او چنان پیری است کش آغاز نیست ** با چنان در یتیم انباز نیست‌‌
  • Verily, old wine grows more potent, especially the wine that is the presence of God.
  • خود قوی‌‌تر می‌‌شود خمر کهن ** خاصه آن خمری که باشد من لدن‌‌
  • Choose a Pír, for without a Pír this journey is exceeding full of woe and affright and danger.
  • پیر را بگزین که بی‌‌پیر این سفر ** هست بس پر آفت و خوف و خطر
  • Without an escort you are bewildered (even) on a road you have travelled many times (before):
  • آن رهی که بارها تو رفته‌‌ای ** بی‌‌قلاووز اندر آن آشفته‌‌ای‌‌
  • Do not, then, travel alone on a Way that you have not seen at all, do not turn your head away from the Guide. 2945
  • پس رهی را که ندیده ستی تو هیچ ** هین مرو تنها ز رهبر سر مپیچ‌‌
  • Fool, if his shadow (protection) be not over you, then the cry of the ghoul will keep you (wandering about) with your head in a whirl.
  • گر نباشد سایه‌‌ی او بر تو گول ** پس ترا سر گشته دارد بانگ غول‌‌
  • The ghoul will (entice you) from the Way (and) cast you into destruction: there have been in this Way many craftier than you (who have perished miserably).
  • غولت از ره افکند اندر گزند ** از تو داهی‌‌تر در این ره بس بدند
  • Hear (learn) from the Qur’án the perdition of the wayfarers, what the evil-souled Iblís did unto them:
  • از نبی بشنو ضلال رهروان ** که چشان کرد آن بلیس بد روان‌‌
  • He carried them far—a journey of hundreds of thousands of years—from the Highway, and made them backsliders and naked (devoid of good works).
  • صد هزاران ساله راه از جاده دور ** بردشان و کردشان ادبار و عور
