The following is my translation of a verse from ghazal no. 12 of Saʻdí. The translation follows an AABB rhyme scheme and is set to iambic pentameter. See here for a Tablet of ʻAbduʼl-Bahá in which He quotes this verse.
The thinkers, as they glean their precious grain,
Think not of Laylí’s mystery arcane
This joy belongs alone to that Majnún
Who burns his field and relishes the boon
A typescript of the original Persian text of this verse appears below.
