بخش ۸ - الحکایه و التمثیل / Section 8 - The Tale and the Parable

Original content

چنین گفته ست آن پیر پر اسرار
که نه گم می شوی تو نه پدیدار

اگر چون عرش اعلا گردی از عز
به هیچت بر نمی گیرند هرگز

وگر چون ذره ای گردی به خردی
چنین گفت او که هم گم می نگردی

چه می خواهی چه می گویی کجایی
سخن از دوغ گوی ای روستایی

English translation

Thus said that mysterious elder, 'That you are neither lost nor apparent. If you become as exalted as the highest throne, They will never hold you in any regard. And if you become as small as an atom in smallness, Thus he said that you will not become lost either. What do you want, what do you say, where are you? Speak of buttermilk, oh villager!'
