English:=== With gathering clouds in the heaven above letting water slowly drip
                  The birds all sing the melody sweet, like wine as rain they sip
                                                          -

Persian:  Magar bosey nami khahad ze sosan
              Keh ghuncha tang me geerad dahan ra

                  With eager lips when kissed by birds, they blush, and blush, and blush

Persian: Nigara bulbul enak meekunad bang
            Ravan kun der chaman sarv e ravan ra

English:=== Be not so proud and learn you please whatever you have to savor
                  And don't you think the beauty you've will last somehow for ever

Persian:  Ba bagh e majlis e khud hamchu bulbul
              Negeh kun Khusrav e shirin zaban ra
              Hay baronaq yeh taera bagh e majlis
              Bula phir khusrav e shirin zaban ko

                  For find you will not anyone with such an eloquent  speech
