| I died as a mineral and became a plant,
I died as plant and rose to animal,
I died as animal and I was Man.
Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Yet once more I shall die as Man, to soar
With angels bless'd; but even from angelhood
I must pass on: all except God doth perish.
When I have sacrificed my angel-soul,
I shall become what no mind e'er conceived.
Oh, let me not exist! for Non-existence
Proclaims in organ tones, To Him we shall return. |

از جمادی مُردم و نامی شدم
— وز نما مُردم بحیوان سرزدم
مُردم از حیوانی و آدم شدم
— پس چه ترسم کی ز مردم کم شدم
حملهء دیگر بمیرم از بشر
— تا برآرم از ملایک بال و پر
وز ملک هم بایدم جستن ز جو
— کل شییء هالک الاوجهه
بار دیگر از ملک پران شوم
— آنچه اندر وهم ناید آن شوم
پس عدم گردم عدم چو ارغنون
— گویدم کانا الیه راجعون
