کیستم من راه‌نورد

Who am I? A wandering, mad traveler Bearing Majnun's wound from the hand of loneliness — I am a legend

Neither accepted by the ascetic, nor by the elder wine-seller Neither given a way to the mosque, nor to that tavern

I have fallen like a dry leaf from the tree of hope Neither given passage to the garden, nor to the fire-temple

I became no one's shadow, and no one became my shadow My settled manner is: to lay my heart at the door of a ruin

Kistam man? rahnaward aawara o diwanaye Dagh majnoonam ze dast be kasi afsanaye

Ne qaboole zahedam man, ne ze pire may ferosh Ne ba masjid rah dadand, ne dar aan maykhanaye

Barg khoshkam az darakh arezo oftada am Ne ba golshan rah dadand ne dar atashkhanaye

Ne kase raa saya gashtam ne kase shod saya-am Shewa-e araamam man dil ba dar wairana-am
