زندگي چيست ؟ عشق ورزيدن
زندگي را به عشق بخشيدن
زنده است آنكه عشق مي وزرد
دل و جانش به عشق مي ارزد
What is life?
Love-making!
Surrendering
one’s life
to love!
Whoever
makes love
is alive,
His or her
heart and soul
is worth only
the love
that he or she
has made.

What is life? Loving
The life of ease in love
Love is life but mi vazard
Del and sells to love mi rzd
