The general difficulty of translating poetry from one language to another is further compounded in this case by the fact that Persian lacks articles, pronouns, and noun endings that indicate the gender of individuals. The translator must make a decision in German based on their conviction and move away from the ambiguity of double meanings. The translation presented here from Persian to German by Dr. Reza Hosseini-Nassab and Christiane Tagunoff is not a paraphrase, but rather an attempt at an authentic transfer.
