متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

گفت پیغامبر که زن بر عاقلانغالب آید سخت و بر صاحب دلان
The Prophet said that women prevail greatly over the wise
and over those who possess heart.
باز بر زن جاهلان چیره شوندزانک ایشان تند و بس خیره روند
But the ignorant in turn dominate women,
for they are fierce and go about utterly heedless.
کم بودشان رقت و لطف و ودادزانک حیوانیست غالب بر نهاد
In them tenderness and gentleness and affection are scarce,
for the animal nature prevails in their constitution.
مهر و رقت وصف انسانی بودخشم و شهوت وصف حیوانی بود
Love and tenderness are the attributes of the human;
anger and lust are the attributes of the animal.
پرتو حقست آن معشوق نیستخالقست آن گوییا مخلوق نیست
She is a ray of the Real (Ḥaqq), not merely the beloved—
she is the Creator; you might say she is not the created.
