متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation
| پوست دنبه یافت شخصی مستهان | هر صباحی چرب کردی سبلتان |
| A wretched person found a fat sheep's-tail skin; Every morning he would grease his mustache with it. | |
| در میان منعمان رفتی که من | لوت چربی خورده ام در انجمن |
| He would go among the wealthy saying: "I Have eaten rich fatty food at the gathering." | |
| دست بر سبلت نهادی در نوید | رمز، یعنی سوی سبلت بنگرید |
| He would lay his hand upon his mustache as a hint, A signal meaning: look at my mustache— | |
| کین گواه صدق گفتار منست | وین نشان چرب و شیرین خوردنست |
| For this is witness to the truth of my words, And this is the sign of eating rich and sweet food. | |
| اشکمش گفتی جواب بی طنین | که اباد الله کید الکاذبین |
| His belly would answer without a sound: "May God confound the schemes of liars! | |
| لاف تو ما را بر آتش بر نهاد | کان سبال چرب تو بر کنده باد |
| Your boasting has set us upon the fire— May that greasy mustache of yours be torn out! | |
| گر نبودی لاف زشتت ای گدا | یک کریمی رحم افکندی به ما |
| Had it not been for your ugly boasting, O beggar, Some generous person would have taken pity on us. | |
| ور نمودی عیب و کژ کم باختی | یک طبیبی داروی او ساختی |
| Had you shown your flaw and played less crookedly, Some physician would have prepared a remedy for it." | |
| گفت حق که کژ مجنبان گوش و دم | ینفعن الصادقین صدقهم |
| God said: "Do not twitch ear and tail crookedly— 'Their truthfulness shall benefit the truthful.'" | |
| گفت اندر کژ مخسپ ای محتلم | آنچ داری وا نما و فاستقم |
| He said: "Do not sleep in crookedness, O dreamer— Show what you have and 'be steadfast.' | |
| ور نگویی عیب خود باری خمش | از نمایش وز دغل خود را مکش |
| Or if you will not speak your flaw, at least be silent— Do not torment yourself with display and deceit. | |
| گر تو نقدی یافتی مگشا دهان | هست در ره سنگهای امتحان |
| If you have found some coin, do not open your mouth— Along the way there are stones of trial. | |
| سنگهای امتحان را نیز پیش | امتحانها هست در احوال خویش |
| Before even the stones of trial, There are trials within one's own states." | |
| گفت یزدان از ولادت تا بحین | یفتنون کل عام مرتین |
| God said: "From birth until now, 'They are tried every year once or twice.'" | |
| امتحان در امتحانست ای پدر | هین به کمتر امتحان خود را مخر |
| Trial upon trial, O father— Beware, do not sell yourself short at a lesser trial. | |
