دفتر سوم - بخش ۲۱۳ - جذب هر عنصری جنس خود را کی در ترکیب آدمی محتبس شده است به غیر جنس / Book Three - Section 213 - The Attraction of Every Element to Its Own Kind, Which is Imprisoned in the Composition of Man with What is Not of Its Kind

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

خاک گوید خاک تن را باز گردترک جان کن سوی ما آ همچو گرد
Earth says to the earth of the body: Return,
Abandon the soul, come to us like dust.
جنس مایی پیش ما اولیتریبه که زان تن وا رهی و زان تری
You are our kind, you have priority with us,
Better that you free yourself from that body and that moisture.
گوید آری لیک من پابسته امگرچه همچون تو ز هجران خسته ام
It says: Indeed, but I am fettered,
Though like you I am weary from separation.
تری تن را بجویند آبهاکای تری باز آ ز غربت سوی ما
The waters seek the moisture of the body,
Saying: O moisture, return from exile to us.
گرمی تن را همی خواند اثیرکه ز ناری راه اصل خویش گیر
The aether calls to the warmth of the body:
Since you are of fire-nature, take the path to your own origin.
هست هفتاد و دو علت در بدناز کششهای عناصر بی رسن
There are seventy-two ailments in the body,
From the pulls of the elements without cord.
علت آید تا بدن را بسکلدتا عناصر همدگر را وا هلد
Illness comes to sever the body,
So that the elements release one another.
چار مرغ اند این عناصر بسته پامرگ و رنجوری و علت پاگشا
These four elements are birds with bound feet—
Death and infirmity and illness are the foot-looseners.
پایشان از همدگر چون باز کردمرغ هر عنصر یقین پرواز کرد
When their feet are freed from one another,
The bird of each element surely takes flight.
جذبهٔ این اصلها و فرعهاهر دمی رنجی نهد در جسم ما
The attraction of these origins and offshoots
Places a pain in our body at every breath,
تا که این ترکیبها را بر دردمرغ هر جزوی به اصل خود پرد
So that it may tear apart these compositions
And the bird of each part may fly to its own origin.
حکمت حق مانع آید زین عجلجمعشان دارد بصحت تا اجل
The wisdom of God comes as obstacle to this haste,
And keeps them together in health until the appointed time.
گوید ای اجزا اجل مشهود نیستپر زدن پیش از اجلتان سود نیست
It says: O parts, the appointed time is not yet manifest,
Flapping your wings before your appointed time is of no benefit.
چونک هر جزوی بجوید ارتفاقچون بود جان غریب اندر فراق
When each part seeks its own reunion,
How must the soul be—a stranger in separation?
