Bustan Saadi بوستان سعدی
| Devotion is good when its object is plain, What good, else, can come from a skin without brain? | عبادت به اخلاص نیت نکوست وگرنه چه آید ز بی مغز پوست؟ |
| What’s the belt of the gueber? the tattered, old cloak? When you wear them to tickle the fancies of folk | چه زنار مغ بر میانت چه دلق که در پوشی از بهر پندار خلق |
| Do not publish your bravery, I’ve told you, at least; When you’ve shown you’re a man, do not act like a beast | مکن گفتمت مردی خویش فاش چو مردی نمودی مخنث مباش |
| One should merit display, in accordance with facts He is never ashamed who in this manner acts. | به اندازه بود باید نمود خجالت نبرد آن که ننمود و بود |
| For when from one’s head the lent turban they tear. On his breast there remains an old garment to wear. | که چون عاریت برکنند از سرش نماید کهن جامهای در برش |
| Do not use wooden stilts if your stature be small. That in juvenile eyes you may seem to be tall! | اگر کوتهی پای چوبین مبند که در چشم طفلان نمایی بلند |
| If a coating of silver on copper you pass, You may foist it with ease on an ignorant ass. | وگر نقره اندوده باشد نحاس توان خرج کردن بر ناشناس |
| On coppers, my life, liquid gold do not place! For the wise bankers treat them as worthless and base. | منه جان من آب زر بر پشیز که صراف دانا نگیرد به چیز |
| The coins that are gilt, in the furnace they throw; Which is copper; which gold, they immediately know. | زر اندودگان را به آتش برند پدید آید آنگه که مس یا زرند |
| Don’t you know what a chief of the mountain monks spake To the man, who for fame ev’ry night kept awake? | ندانی که بابای کوهی چه گفت به مردی که ناموس را شب نخفت؟ |
| ” Qh soul of your father, in purity strive! For you cannot from people advantage derive. | برو جان بابا در اخلاص پیچ که نتوانی از خلق رستن به هیچ |
| Those men who in love with your actions have been, Have only your outward appearance yet seen. | کسانی که فعلت پسندیدهاند هنوز از تو نقش برون دیدهاند |
| What price will a Heuri like maiden bring in, Who beneath her fine dress has a foul, leprous skin? | چه قدر آورد بنده حوردیس که زیر قبا دارد اندام پیس؟ |
| You cannot in Heav’n by deceit get a place, For the veil will retire from your sinister face.” | نشاید به دستان شدن در بهشت که بازت رود چادر از روی زشت |
