Breathing in the Rose Garden



نبیند مدعى جز خویشتن را / که دارد پرده پندار در پیش

گرت چشم خدا بینى ببخشند / نبینى هیچ کس عاجزتر از خویش


May the accuser see no one but himself / He who has drawn curtains before his thoughts

If that he were endowed with eyes of God consciousness / That he would see no one weaker than himself




-- Saadi in Golestan or the "Rose Garden": باب دوّم ‐ در اخلاق درویشان : حکایت ۷
