متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

هم بدان تیغش بفرمود او قصاصکی کند مکرش ز علم حق خلاص؟
With that same sword he ordered retribution against him;
How can his deception save him from the knowledge of God?
حلم حق گرچه مواساها کندلیک چون از حد بشد پیدا کند
Though the forbearance of God shows tolerance and leniency,
Yet when it exceeds the limit, He makes it manifest.
خون نخسپد درفتد در هر دلیمیل جست و جوی و کشف مشکلی
Shed blood does not sleep; there falls into every heart
A desire for searching and the solving of a mystery.
اقتضای داوری رب دینسر بر آرد از ضمیر آن و این
The requirement of the judgment of the Lord of the faith
Raises its head from the inner mind of this one and that one:
کان فلان چون شد چه شد حالش چه گشتهمچنانک جوشد از گلزار کشت
'How did so-and-so fare? What became of him? What was his state?'
Just as the crop sprouts from the garden.
جوشش خون باشد آن وا جستهاخارش دلها و بحث و ماجرا
Those inquiries are the boiling of the blood,
The itching of hearts, and the debate and dispute.
چونک پیداگشت سر کار اومعجزه داود شد فاش و دوتو
When the secret of his deed was revealed,
The miracle of David became manifest and redoubled.
خلق جمله سر برهنه آمدندسر به سجده بر زمینها می زدند
All the people came bareheaded,
Prostrating their heads upon the earth:
ما همه کوران اصلی بوده ایماز تو ما صد گون عجایب دیده ایم
'We have all been blind from the root,
Yet we have seen a hundred kinds of wonders from you.
سنگ با تو در سخن آمد شهیرکز برای غزو طالوتم بگیر
The stone spoke aloud with you,
Saying, 'Take me for the battle of Talut (Saul).'
تو به سه سنگ و فلاخن آمدیصد هزاران مرد را بر هم زدی
You came with three stones and a sling,
And you overthrew a hundred thousand men.
سنگهایت صدهزاران پاره شدهر یکی هر خصم را خون خواره شد
Your stones shattered into a hundred thousand pieces,
Each one becoming a blood-drinker for every enemy.
آهن اندر دست تو چون موم شدچون زره سازی تورا معلوم شد
Iron became like wax in your hand,
When the making of chainmail was made known to you.
کوهها با تو رسایل شد شکوربا تو می خوانند چون مقری زبور
The mountains became grateful companions to you,
Singing the Psalms with you like a cantor.
صد هزاران چشم دل بگشاده شداز دم تو غیب را آماده شد
A hundred thousand eyes of the heart were opened,
By your breath, they were made ready for the Unseen.
و آن قوی تر زان همه کین دایمستزندگی بخشی که سرمد قایمست
And that which is stronger than all of these, which is everlasting,
Is the giving of life which is eternally established.
جان جملهٔ معجزات اینست خودکو ببخشد مرده را جان ابد
This indeed is the soul of all miracles:
That it bestows eternal life upon the dead.
کشته شد ظالم جهانی زنده شدهر یکی از نو خدا را بنده شد
The oppressor was slain, and a world was made alive;
Each one became anew a servant of God.'
