متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation
| باز می دیدم که می شد هفت، یک | می شکافد نور او جیب فلک |
| Again I saw that the seven were becoming one; its light was splitting the collar of the heavens. | |
| باز آن یک، بار دیگر هفت شد | مستی و حیرانی من زفت شد |
| Again that one became seven once more; my intoxication and bewilderment grew vast. | |
| اتصالاتی میان شمعها | که نیاید بر زبان و گفت ما |
| There were connections among the candles that cannot come onto our tongue or into our speech. | |
| آنک یک دیدن کند ادراک آن | سالها نتوان نمودن از زبان |
| Whoever grasps that in a single act of seeing could not show it with the tongue for years. | |
| آنک یک دم بیندش ادراک هوش | سالها نتوان شنودن آن بگوش |
| Whoever's understanding sees it for a single instant could not hear it with the ear for years. | |
| چونک پایانی ندارد رو الیک | زانک لا احصی ثناء ما علیک |
| Since it has no end, turn toward You, for I cannot enumerate praise of You. | |
| پیشتر رفتم دوان کان شمعها | تا چه چیزست از نشان کبریا |
| I ran farther forward toward those candles, to see what thing this sign of Majesty was. | |
| می شدم بی خویش و مدهوش و خراب | تا بیفتادم ز تعجیل و شتاب |
| I was becoming selfless, stunned, and ruined, until I fell from haste and hurry. | |
| ساعتی بی هوش و بی عقل اندرین | اوفتادم بر سر خاک زمین |
| For a while, unconscious and without intellect in this state, I fell with my head upon the dust of the earth. | |
| باز با هوش آمدم برخاستم | در روش گویی نه سر نه پاستم |
| Then I came back to consciousness and rose; in moving, it was as though I had neither head nor foot. | |
