There, where every sign dissolves into signlessness,
the finger of imagination rests upon its lips, hushed.
There, a flirting glance keeps its arrow drawn in the bow;
beware, do not go, for there your very life is at risk.
Explanation: The finger on the lips is a gesture of astonished silence. The 'flirting glance' is the beloved's coquettish look, a classic Persian image where the eye's arrow wounds the lover.

جایی که نشان بی نشانست آنجا
انگشت خیال بر دهانست آنجا
از غمزه خدنگ در کمانست آنجا
زنهار مرو که بیم جانست آنجا
