Bustan Saadi بوستان سعدی
| How well spoke Bihram of the desert renowned, When thrown by an obstinate horse to the ground: “From the pasture another horse must be obtained; For when one is rebellious he must be restrained.” | چه خوش گفت بهرام صحرانشین چو یکران توسن زدش بر زمین دگر اسبی از گله باید گرفت که گر سر کشد باز شاید گرفت |
| You may stop, with a bodkin, the fountain’s weak source; When flooded, an elephant can’t stem its course. Dam the Tigris, oh son! when the water is scant; For when it increases in volume, you can’t! | ببند ای پسر دجله در آب کاست که سودی ندارد چو سیلاب خاست |
| When the wicked old wolf puts his head in the noose, Take his life! or your heart from your flocks you may loose. | چو گرگ خبیث آمدت در کمند بکش ورنه دل بر کن از گوسفند |
| Adoration from Satan’s a thing quite unknown; Good actions have never by villains been shown. | از ابلیس هرگز نیاید سجود نه از بد گهر نیکویی در وجود |
| Of a fit place and time, let no foe be possessed! A foe in a well, and fiend bottled, are best | بد اندیش را جاه و فرصت مده عدو در چه و دیو در شیشه به |
| Do not say that this snake, with a stick, you must slay; When you have its head under a stone, pound away! When a writer has injured his poor fellow men, A sword for his hands is more fit than a pen. | مگو شاید این مار کشتن به چوب چو سر زیر سنگ تو دارد بکوب قلم زن که بد کرد با زیردست قلم بهتر او را به شمشیر دست |
| The vizier who imposes the bad laws he frames, Will carry you on till he gives you to flames. Do not say, “This vizier is befitting the state. ” Do not call him vizier; he’s the people’s bad fate. | مدبر که قانون بد می‌نهد تو را می‌برد تا به دوزخ دهد مگو ملک را این مدبر بس است مدبر مخوانش که مدبر کس است |
| To the sayings of Sadi the fortunate list; For in them growth of state, sense and wisdom exist | سعید آورد قول سعدی به جای که ترتیب ملک است و تدبیر رای |
