      بر کاکل ار بستی گره جان از چه دارند اهل حال
      ور سنبلت نگشوده نرخ دل ارزان از چه شد
      bar kākul ar bastī girih jān az či dārand ahl-i hāl
      w-ar sunbulat na-gušūda nirx-i dil arzān az či šud
      If you have knotted your bangs of hair, how can the wise ones of today still be alive [and not die of love for you]?
      And if you have not opened your hyacinth[-like hair], how can the market price of the heart be [so] cheap?
