his poetry is simple, short and deep
Hearts with the light of love illumined well,
Whether in mosque or synagogue they dwell,
Have their names written in the book of love,
Unvexed by hopes of heaven or fears of hell.
هر دل که در او نور محبت بسرشت
گر ساکن مسجد است وگر ز اهل کنشت
در دفتر عشق هرکه را نام نوشت
آزاد ز دوزخ است و فارغ ز بهشت
