sujude ba-an mast mahshar kHaram
sujūde ba-āñ mast mahshar kHarām
za-mai-kash za rinde za barbād-kāme
Bow down to the intoxicated calamitous gate of the beloved. The prostration of the drinker, the reveler and the ruined man.
ḳharābam azaañ chashm-e-mai-gūñ ḳharābam
ba-sāġhar ba-mīnā ba-bāda ba-jāme
It feels like I am ruined by those glances not from the glass or goblet and wine.
ġharaz āfat-e-jān-e-mahzūn-e-mā rā
ba-qahre ba-mohre sukūte kalāme
In short he saddens our grieving soul with anger, silence and stillness.
namāzam hamīñ bas ki dāram ḳhayāle
sujūde qu'ūde rukū'e qiyāme
Our prayer is that at all times, the thought of prostration, bowing, sitting and standing remains (in prayer) with me.
junūnam ba-yafzūd imroz mai-kash
tabassum nigāhe tamavvuj kHarāme
O Maikash! Today, a smiling gaze and a flowing move have intensified our madness.
