’’الایا خیمگی خیمہ فروھل
English title: O, tent chamberlain! leave the tent hark
’’الایا خیمگی خیمہ فروھلکہ پیش آہنگ بیرون شد ز منزل‘‘
O, tent chamberlain! leave the tent hark The guide has gone beyond the base park.
خبردار اے خیمہ میں بیٹھنے والے خیمہ چھوڑ دے کیونکہ قافلے کی رہنمائی کرنے والا منزل سے آگے نکل چکا ہے ۔
خرد از راندن محمل فرو ماندزمام خویش دادم در کف دل
To drive the litters now flops the‐wan‐brain, I let the heart hence to take up the reins.
عقل کجاوے یعنی جسم کو ہانکنے (سفر کے لیے) سے عاجز آ چکی ہے ۔ میں نے اس کی مہار دل کی ہتھیلی میں تھما دی ہے ۔
