az dida-e-dil husn-e-do-’alam didam
az dīda-e-dil husn-e-do-’ālam dīdam
mīzān shudam-o-nek-o-badash sanjīdam
har sar ki girāñ-bār buvad sañg-e-dilast
har ḳhasta sare subuk buvad fahmīdam
With the eye of heart I saw the beauty of both the worlds;
By becoming myself a balance I weighed well its good and bad.
The head that is heavy (wise) is a burden for the heart.
But that which is distracted is lighter.
az dida-e-dil husn-e-do-’alam didam
mizan shudam-o-nek-o-badash sanjidam
har sar ki giran-bar buwad sang-e-dilast
har KHasta sare subuk buwad fahmidam
With the eye of heart I saw the beauty of both the worlds;
By becoming myself a balance I weighed well its good and bad.
The head that is heavy (wise) is a burden for the heart.
But that which is distracted is lighter.
