Four things not in your treasure

بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمـَنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Legend has it that as Shams al-Dīn Muhammad Suzani Samarqandi (سوزنی سمرقندی) was approaching the end of his time here on earth, he uttered these lines:

چَهار چِیز آوَرْدِه‌اَم،شَاهاَ، کِه دَر گَنجِ تُو نِیست

 

نِیستی وَ حَاجَت وَ  عذر وَ گُناه آوَرْدِه‌اَم

Four things, I bring O King, that your treasure-troves lack:
My nothingness, Need, Excuses and Sin- that is all I bring
