  • When that (sorely) wounded one beheld the face of Mustafá (Mohammed), he fell down in a swoon, he fell on his back.
  • چون بدید آن خسته روی مصطفی  ** خر مغشیا فتاد او بر قفا 

  • For a long time he remained unconscious and beside himself: when he came to himself, he shed tears for joy.
  • تا بدیری بی‌خود و بی‌خویش ماند  ** چون به خویش آمد ز شادی اشک راند 

  • Mustafá clasped him to his bosom: how should any one know the bounty that was bestowed on him?

  • How is it with a piece of copper that has touched the elixir? How with an insolvent who has hit upon an ample treasure?
  • چون بود مسی که بر اکسیر زد  ** مفلسی بر گنج پر توفیر زد 

  • (’Twas as though) a fish parched (for want of water) fell into the sea, (or) a caravan that had lost its way struck the right road. 1065

  • If the words which the Prophet addressed (to him) at that moment should fall upon (the ears of) Night, it (Night) would cease from being night;
  • آن خطاباتی که گفت آن دم نبی  ** گر زند بر شب بر آید از شبی 

  • Night would become day radiant as dawn: I cannot express (the real meaning of) that mystic allocution.

  • The Divine attraction holds a hundred discourses with the effects and secondary causes, without (uttering) a word or (moving) a lip.
  • جذب یزدان با اثرها و سبب  ** صد سخن گوید نهان بی‌حرف و لب 

  • Not that the production of effects by the Divine decree is not actual; but His production of effects thereby is inconceivable to reason.
  • نه که تاثیر از قدر معمول نیست  ** لیک تاثیرش ازو معقول نیست 

  • Since reason has learned by rote (from the prophets) in regard to the fundamentals, know O trifler, that it (also) learns by rote in regard to the derivatives.

  • که مرا از بندگیت آزادیست  ** بی‌تو بر من محنت و بیدادیست 

  • O thou who through being the chosen (Prophet) hast brought the (whole) world to life and hast made the common folk to be the elect, especially me,
  • ای جهان را زنده کرده ز اصطفا  ** خاص کرده عام را خاصه مرا 

  • In my youth my spirit used to dream that the orb of the sun salaamed to me, 1080
  • خوابها می‌دید جانم در شباب  ** که سلامم کرد قرص آفتاب 

  • And lifted me up from earth to heaven: by mounting (so) high I had become its fellow-traveller.
