PARVIN E'TESAMI
تو نیکی کن بمسکین و تهیدست، که نیکی، خود سبب گردد دعا را
To niki kon be meskin o tohidast, ke niki, khod sabab gardad doâ râ
Do good to the poor and the empty-handed — for goodness itself becomes a cause for prayer on your behalf.

دل پاکیزه، به کردار بد آلوده مکن، تیرگی خواستن، از نور گریزان شدن است
Do not stain a pure heart with evil deeds — to seek darkness is to flee from the light.

طائری کز آشیان، پرواز بهر آز کرد، کیفرش، فرجام بال و پر به خون آلودن است
The bird that flies from its nest driven by greed — its punishment, in the end, is to have its wings soaked in blood.
