ای که از یار نشان

O you who seek joy from the beloved — where is the beloved? All are beloveds — but where is a faithful beloved?

Until the beautiful ones ask, the grief of the heart cannot be told And if they ask, say: where is the strength to speak?

In the tavern of the magi, seek not wakefulness — for we Are all drunk — and in this tavern, where is the sober one?

Ay ke az yar neshat metalabi yar kojast? Hama yarand o wale yare wafadar kojast

Ta naporsand ba khoban ghame dil natwan goft War beporsand bego qowate goftar kojast

Dar kharabat maghan hosh majoyet ke ma Hama mastem o dar ein maykada hoshyar kojast
