Folio:
بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم 1
زندگانی مادر عزیز من اندر عز نعمت 2
سلامت دراز باد ایزد عز و جل خشنود 3
الحمد لله رب العالمین چند نامه فرستا 4
دم یکی جواب نیافتم امید دارم که جز 5
نیکو نباشد و دلم سخت مشغول 6
است امید دارم که جز نیکویی نباشد 7
و من اینجا ام بر خود فرستی بر هود (؟) 8
فرست بعمید اوا (؟) تا دانسته باشم 9
از بهر خدای را که اگر بسلامت [بـ]ـا[شی] 10
مرا آگاه کنی اگر نه ما [+ 1] 11
خدای آن بنده را بیامرزد که این نامه بر 1
ساند بده آهنگران عیسی را دهد تا 2
مادر ا استاد را 3
دهد 4
و زنهار که هم بدست آرنده نامه 5
جواب فرستی
