      به طرب حمل مکن سرخی رویم که چو جام
      خون دل عکس برون می‌دهد از رخسارم
      ba tarab haml makun surxī-yi rōyam ki čū jām
      xūn-i dil aks birōn mē-dahad az ruxsāram
      Do not think that the redness of my face, like the wine goblet, is from joy;
      The heart's bleeding is letting out an image through my cheeks.
