My king, your horse's hoof treads across the sky;
fear no envier's scheme, no evil eye.
But you are a whole world of grace, generosity, and skill,
and no single horse can carry off an entire world.
Explanation: The poet plays on the idea that the king is so vast in virtue that even a sky-treading horse cannot bear him, meaning his greatness surpasses any measure.

رباعی شمارهٔ ۱۲
شاها سم اسبت آسمان میسپرد
از کید حسود و چشم بد غم نخورد
لیکن تو جهان فضل و جود و هنری
اسبی نتواند که جهانی ببرد
