jaanam ba-fida-e-an ki u ahl buwad
jānam ba-fidā-e-āñ ki uu ahl buvad
sar dar qadmash agar niham sahl buvad
ḳhvāhī ki ba-dānī ba-yaqīñ dozaḳh rā
dozaḳh ba-jahāñ sohbat-e-nā-ahl buvad
I would sacrifice my life for the worthy one, I would lay my head on the feet with ease; if thou art desirous to know the hell with certainty, the hell in this world is the company of the unworthy one.
jaanam ba-fida-e-an ki u ahl buwad
sar dar qadmash agar niham sahl buwad
KHwahi ki ba-dani ba-yaqin dozaKH ra
dozaKH ba-jahan sohbat-e-na-ahl buwad
I would sacrifice my life for the worthy one, I would lay my head on the feet with ease; if thou art desirous to know the hell with certainty, the hell in this world is the company of the unworthy one.
