      درین جهان نرسیدم بوصل و خاک شدم
      مگر که پای تو بوسم دران جهان ای دوست
      دگر برسم گدایی بیایم و بوسم
      هزار بار بران خاک آسمان ای دوست
      dar īn jahān narasīdam ba-wasl u xāk šudam
      magar ki pā-yi tō bōsam dar ān jahān ay dōst
      digar ba-rasm-i gadāyī biyāyam u bōsam
      hazār bār bar ān xāk-i āsmān ay dōst
      I did not reach union [with the beloved] in this world and became dirt;
      [Having been buried and become earth,] perhaps I shall kiss your feet in that world, o friend!
      What is more, I come to the station of beggars and make kisses
      A thousand times upon that heavenly dirt [before your door], o friend!
      (Classical Persian transliteration)
