اگر در مشت خاک تو نهادند
1
اگر در مشت خاک تو نهادند
دل صد پارهٔ خونابه باری

If dwells in your earthly being —

A heart, fractured into a hundred bleeding pieces

2
ز ابر نو بهاران گریه آموز
که از اشک تو روید لاله زاری

Learn from the fresh spring clouds to shed tears —

That from your tears, a tulip meadow may arise.
