متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

این سخن پایان ندارد مصطفیعرضه کرد ایمان و پذرفت آن فتی
This discourse has no end. Mustafa
Offered faith, and that youth accepted it.
آن شهادت را که فرخ بوده استبندهای بسته را بگشوده است
That testimony which has been auspicious,
Has opened the bound bonds.
گشت مؤمن گفت او را مصطفیکه امشبان هم باش تو مهمان ما
He became a believer; Mustafa said to him:
'Tonight also, be our guest.'
گفت والله تا ابد ضیف توامهر کجا باشم بهر جا که روم
He said: 'By God, I am your guest for eternity,
Wherever I may be, wherever I may go.'
زنده کرده و معتق و دربان تواین جهان و آن جهان بر خوان تو
'Revived, liberated, and your doorkeeper,
In this world and the next, at your table.'
هر که بگزیند جزین بگزیده خوانعاقبت درد گلویش ز استخوان
'Whoever chooses other than this chosen table,
In the end, his throat will ache from a bone.'
هر که سوی خوان غیر تو روددیو با او دان که هم کاسه بود
'Whoever goes to a table other than yours,
Know that the devil is his companion sharing the bowl.'
هر که از همسایگی تو روددیو بی شکی که همسایه اش شود
'Whoever departs from your neighborhood,
Without a doubt, the devil becomes his neighbor.'
ور رود بی تو سفر او دوردستدیو بد همراه و هم سفره ویست
'And if he goes on a journey far away without you,
The evil devil is his companion and table-mate.'
ور نشیند بر سر اسپ شریفحاسد ماهست دیو او را ردیف
'And if he sits upon a noble steed,
He is the envier of the moon, but the devil is his rider behind him.'
ور بچه گیرد ازو شهناز اودیو در نسلش بود انباز او
'And if his beloved bears him a child,
The devil will be a partner in his offspring.'
در نبی شارکهم گفته ست حقهم در اموال و در اولاد ای شفق
In the Holy Book, God has said, 'Share with them,'
Both in wealth and in children, O twilight!
گفت پیغمبر ز غیب این را جلیدر مقالات نوادر با علی
The Prophet spoke of this openly from the Unseen,
In rare discourses to Ali:
یا رسول الله رسالت را تمامتو نمودی هم چو شمس بی غمام
'O Messenger of God, you have made the mission complete,
Showing it like the sun without a cloud.'
این که تو کردی دو صد مادر نکردعیسی از افسونش با عازر نکرد
'What you have done, two hundred mothers did not do;
Jesus did not do with his spell for Lazarus.'
از تو جانم از اجل نک جان ببردعازر ار شد زنده زان دم باز مرد
'Through you, my soul has now escaped from death;
If Lazarus became alive, he died again after that moment.'
گشت مهمان رسول آن شب عربشیر یک بز نیمه خورد و بست لب
The Arab became the guest of the Messenger that night;
He drank only half of one goat's milk and closed his lips.
کرد الحاحش بخور شیر و رقاقگفت گشتم سیر والله بی نفاق
The Prophet urged him, 'Drink the milk and eat the thin bread!'
He said, 'I have become full, by God, without hypocrisy.'
این تکلف نیست نی ناموس و فنسیرتر گشتم از آنک دوش من
'This is not pretense, nor self-aggrandizement, nor a trick;
I am more satiated than I was last night.'
در عجب ماندند جمله اهل بیتپر شد این قندیل زین یک قطره زیت
All the household remained in amazement:
'This lamp has been filled with just one drop of oil!'
آنچ قوت مرغ بابیلی بودسیری معده چنین پیلی شود
'That which was the food of an Ababil bird,
Has become the satisfaction of such an elephant's stomach!'
فجفجه افتاد اندر مرد و زنقدر پشه می خورد آن پیل تن
Whispering arose among the men and women:
'That elephant-bodied one is eating only the measure of a gnat!'
حرص و وهم کافری سرزیر شداژدها از قوت موری سیر شد
The greed and illusion of infidelity were overturned;
The dragon was satisfied with the food of an ant.
آن گدا چشمی کفر از وی برفتلوت ایمانیش لمتر کرد و زفت
That beggar-eyedness of unbelief departed from him;
The spiritual food of faith made him plump and strong.
آنک از جوع البقر او می طپیدهم چو مریم میوه جنت بدید
He who was tossing and turning from the 'ox-hunger',
Saw the fruit of Paradise, like Mary.
میوه جنت سوی چشمش شتافتمعده چون دوزخش آرام یافت
The fruit of Paradise rushed toward his eyes;
His hell-like stomach found peace.
ذات ایمان نعمت و لوتیست هولای قناعت کرده از ایمان به قول
The essence of faith is a grand blessing and banquet,
O you who have contented yourself with the mere words of faith!
