From before me, the world of color and scent did flee

ز پیش من جهان رنگ و بو رفت
1
ز پیش من جهان رنگ و بو رفت
زمین و آسمان و چار سو رفت

From before me, the world of color and scent did flee —

The earth, the sky, and all directions ceased to be.

2
تو رفتی ای دل از هنگامهٔ او
و یا از خلوت آباد تو او رفت

Did you, O heart, depart from the world’s bustling array —

Or did it leave your tranquil abode, away?
