من لطف تو در چشم خرد می‌ارم 2
عذرت نه یکی نه ده که صد می‌ارم 3
سر خواستۀ بدست کس نتوان داد 4
می‌ایم بر گردن خود مي ارم 5

Folio:
1         Poem
2 I place your kindness in the eye of wisdom;
3 I beg your pardon not once, not ten, but a hundred times.
4 You wanted my head, but I can’t just hand it over; 
5 I’ll come myself and offer it to you on my neck.
