Number 8
When fate, with delicate care, adorned the face of beauty,
the robe of modesty was tailored to fit the stature of love.
If these two guardians did not stand watch on left and right,
what smoke would rise from these two flames!

از ناز قضا چو چهرة حسن آراست
تشریف حیا به قدّ عشق آمد راست
گر این دو نگهبان نبود از چپ و راست
بس دود کزین دو شعله برخواهد خاست
