Original content

ناگهی بهلول را خشکی بخاست
رفت پیش شاه ازوی دنبه خواست

آزمایش کرد آن شاهش مگر
تا شناسد هیچ باز از یکدیگر

گفت شلغم پاره باید کرد خرد
پاره کرد آن خادمیش و پیش برد

اندکی چون نان و آن شلغم بخورد
بر زمین افکند و مشتی غم بخورد

شاه را گفتا که تا گشتی تو شاه
چربی از دنبه برفت اینجایگاه

بی حلاوت شد طعام از قهر تو
میبباید شد برون از شهر تو

English translation

Suddenly, a dryness arose in Bahlool, He went before the king and asked him for some sheep's tail fat. The king decided to test him, perhaps, To see if he could distinguish one thing from another. He ordered that turnips be chopped into small pieces, A servant chopped them and brought them before him. When he had eaten a little of the bread and that turnip, He threw it upon the ground and suffered a handful of sorrow. He said to the king, "Ever since you became king, Richness has vanished from the tail-fat in this place. Food has lost its sweetness due to your oppression; One must truly depart from your city."
