The literal translation of the above is as follows:

"The children of Adam are the members of one another, since in their creation they are of one essence. When the conditions of the time brings a member to pain, the other members will suffer from discomfort. You, who are indifferent to the misery of others, it is not fitting that they should call you a human being.“

The poem is also inscribed on a large hand-made carpet installed in 2005 on the wall of a meeting room in the United Nations building in New York City Shiraz University General Information
