      به پشت اسپ شد تا پیش شهرو
      نمازش برد و پوزش خواست بسیار
      که پیشت آمدم بر پشت رهوار
      čō zard āmad sōy-i dargāh-i wīrū
      ba pušt-i asp šud tā pēš-i šahrū
      namāz-aš burd u pōziš xwāst bisyār

      He came up to Shahrū on the back of a horse.
      He made his salutations, and many excuses:
      "I have come before you on the back of a sauntering steed."
