Could anyone tell me which poem by Sohrab Sepehri the following lines come from. have been trying a google search using rough translation, but can't find the official translation into English from anywhere. "be soraghe man agar miaiid narmo aheste biaiid mabada ke tarak bardarad chiniye nazoke tanhanaiye man Shad bashid tala" Thanks in advance.

Well I'm basicly about to molest the poem by translating it...whatever..here we go: If you are coming to (visit) me, come smoothly and slowly, lest my thin porcelain of loneliness gets a crack. the "Shad bashid tala" doesn't belong to the poem and means something like have a good time by piece of gold (flattering).
