  همه میدانند
  که من و تو از آن روزنهٔ سرد عبوس
  باغ را دیدیم
  و از آن شاخهٔ بازیگر دور از دست
  سیب را چیدیم
  hame mi-dânand
  ke man o to az ân rowzane-ye sard-e abus
  bâğ râ didam
  va az ân šâxe-ye bâzigar-e dur az dast
  sib râ čidam
  everyone knows
  that you and I saw the garden
  out of that cold, grim peephole
  and that we plucked the apple
  from that playful branch far from our hands
