Ghazal 5

به ملازمان سلطان که رساند این دعا را

که به شکر پادشاهی ز نظر مران گدا را

Who will carry this prayer to the sultan's attendants — that in thanks for his kingship he not drive the beggar from his sight?

ز رقیب دیوسیرت به خدای خود پناهم

مگر آن شهاب ثاقب مددی دهد خدا را

From the demon-natured rival I take refuge in my God — unless that piercing meteor, for God's sake, lends some help.

The English sits beneath each couplet. It does not replace the ghazal.
