zahid ba-KHuda nist tura bahra za hosh
zāhid ba-ḳhudā niist turā bahra za hosh
az zohd-o-riyā tauba kun-o-bāda ba-nosh
labrez-e-haqīqat ast ā.īna-o-jām
ham sūrat-o-mā’nīst dar josh-o-ḳharosh
O ascetic, by God, you possess little of wisdom ;
( If you have, ) give up this hypocrisy and asceticism and drink wine.
This goblet and cup are overflowing with Truth ;
Both essence and form are bubbling up in them.
zahid ba-KHuda nist tura bahra za hosh
az zohd-o-riya tauba kun-o-baada ba-nosh
labrez-e-haqiqat ast aaina-o-jam
hum surat-o-ma’nist dar josh-o-KHarosh
O ascetic, by God, you possess little of wisdom ;
( If you have, ) give up this hypocrisy and asceticism and drink wine.
This goblet and cup are overflowing with Truth ;
Both essence and form are bubbling up in them.
