Original content

شد جوانی پیش پیری نامدار
دید او را کرده در کنجی قرار

بود تنها هیچکس با او نبود
یک نفس یک همنفس با او نبود

گفت تنها مینگردی تنگدل
پیر گفتش ای جوان سنگدل

با خدای خویش دایم در حضور
چون توان شد تنگدل از پیش دور

هرکه او با همدم خود همبرست
یک دم از ملک دو کونش خوشترست

English translation

A youth went to a renowned elder, And saw him settled in a corner. He was alone, no one was with him, Not for a single breath was a companion with him. He said: 'Do you not feel sad being alone?' The elder said to him: 'O hard-hearted youth, Always in the presence of one's own God, How can one become sad from being away from Him? Whoever is side-by-side with their companion, One moment of it is better than the kingdom of the two worlds.'
