English translation:
When extension was given to beauty, courage was given to love,
Which can't be achieved & can't be forgotten, that issue was given to me.
Taking the wine cup in his hand he has smiled today,
The mind has become cold (dead) and the soul has been enlightened.
Blemish of love has been taken on heart by loosing happiness of life,
For one fresh flower I threw away the parterre.
Tell me what has this happened, were you also there,
Why there was intoxication in sorrow & the pain gave pleasure?
Now there is no 'I' and there is no universe,
I have mixed the love song with the instrument in such a way.
See the reflection of the beloved's beauty in the mirror of self existence,
By giving the pain of separation he has hidden me from myself.
The heat of the resurrection day and the cry for protection,
The idol worshiper 'Asgar' gave the reference of his ringlets.
