من و تو از دل و دین نا امیدیمچوبوی گل ز اصل خود رمیدیم
You and I have lost all confidence in heart and deen, have flown away, like rose’s smell, from our roots;
دل مامرد و دین از مردنش مرددو تامرگی بیک سود اخریدیم
our heart died, and hence our deen also vanished, we bought two deaths in a single bargain.
