متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

صومعهٔ عیسی ست خوان اهل دلهان و هان ای مبتلا این در مهل
The monastery of Jesus is the banquet-table of the people of the heart; beware, beware, O afflicted one: do not leave this door.
جمع گشتندی ز هر اطراف خلقاز ضریر و لنگ و شل و اهل دلق
People from every side would gather there: the blind, the lame, the paralyzed, and the wearers of patched cloaks.
بر در آن صومعهٔ عیسی صباحتا به دم اوشان رهاند از جناح
At dawn they came to the door of that monastery of Jesus, so that by his breath he might deliver them from ailment.
او چو فارغ گشتی از اوراد خویشچاشت گه بیرون شدی آن خوب کیش
When he had finished his own litanies, at forenoon that man of good religion would come out.
جوق جوقی مبتلا دیدی نزارشسته بر در، در امید و انتظار
He would see group after group of afflicted, emaciated people seated at the door in hope and expectation.
گفتی ای اصحاب آفت از خداحاجت این جملگانتان شد روا
He would say, O companions of affliction, by God the need of all of you has been granted.
هین روان گردید بی رنج و عناسوی غفاری و اکرام خدا
Now go on your way, without pain and trouble, toward God's forgiveness and generosity.
جملگان چون اشتران بسته پایکه گشایی زانوی ایشان برای
All of them, like hobbled camels whose knee-bonds are untied, would run happily and joyfully toward home; by his prayer they became swift-footed.
خوش دوان و شادمانه سوی خاناز دعای او شدندی پا دوان
You have tried many afflictions of your own; you found health from these kings of the path.
آزمودی تو بسی آفات خویشیافتی صحت ازین شاهان کیش
How often has your lameness become fit for the road?
چند آن لنگی تو رهوار شدچند جانت بی غم و آزار شد
How often has your soul become free of grief and hurt?
ای مغفل رشته ای بر پای بندتا ز خود هم گم نگردی ای لوند
O heedless one, tie a string to your foot so that you do not lose even yourself, O wanton one.
ناسپاسی و فراموشی تویاد ناورد آن عسل نوشی تو
Your ingratitude and forgetfulness did not remember that drinking of honey.
لاجرم آن راه بر تو بسته شدچون دل اهل دل از تو خسته شد
Inevitably that road was closed to you when the hearts of the people of the heart became weary of you.
زودشان در یاب و استغفار کنهمچو ابری گریه های زار کن
Quickly reach them and ask forgiveness; weep bitter tears like a cloud, so that their rose garden may bloom toward you and ripe fruits may split open upon themselves.
تا گلستان شان سوی تو بشکفدمیوه های پخته بر خود وا کفد
Circle around that same door; be no less than a dog, if you have become fellow-servant with the dog of the Cave.
هم بر آن در گرد ، کم از سگ مباشبا سگ کهف ار شدستی خواجه تاش
For even dogs advise dogs: set your heart on the first house.
چون سگان هم مر سگان را ناصح اندکه دل اندر خانهٔ اول ببند
That first door where you ate a bone: hold fast to it and discharge its right; do not abandon it.
آن در اول که خوردی استخوانسخت گیر و حق گزار آن را ممان
They bite him so that, through discipline, he goes there and prospers from his first station.
می گزندش تا ز ادب آنجا رودوز مقام اولین مفلح شود
They bite him, saying, O rebellious dog, go; do not rebel against your benefactor.
می گزندش کای سگ طاغی بروبا ولی نعمتت یاغی مشو
Stay fastened like a ring at that same door; be watchful, nimble, and ready.
بر همان در همچو حلقه بسته باشپاسبان و چابک و برجسته باش
Do not be the image of breaking our fidelity; do not pointlessly expose faithlessness.
صورت نقض وفای ما مباشبی وفایی را مکن بیهوده فاش
Since fidelity is the mark of dogs, go, do not bring shame and bad name upon dogs.
مر سگان را چون وفا آمد شعاررو سگان را ننگ و بدنامی میار
Since faithlessness is a disgrace even for dogs, how can you regard faithlessness as permissible?
بی وفایی چون سگان را عار بودبی وفایی چون روا داری نمود
God Most High boasts of fidelity; He said, Who is more faithful to a covenant than We are?
حق تعالی فخر آورد از وفاگفت من اوفی بعهد غیرنا
Know that faithlessness is fidelity to rejecting God; no one has precedence over God's rights.
بی وفایی دان وفا با رد حقبر حقوق حق ندارد کس سبق
The mother's right came after that, when that Generous One made her your creditor through your embryo.
حق مادر بعد از آن شد کان کریمکرد او را از جنین تو غریم
He formed you inside her body; during her pregnancy He gave her repose and disposition.
صورتی کردت درون جسم اوداد در حملش ورا آرام و خو
She saw you as a part joined to herself; His providence separated what was joined.
همچو جزو متصل دید او تو رامتصل را کرد تدبیرش جدا
God made thousands of crafts and arts so that the mother would cast affection upon you.
حق هزاران صنعت و فن ساخته ستتا که مادر بر تو مهر انداخته ست
Thus God's prior right comes before the mother's; whoever does not know that right is an ass.
پس حق حق سابق از مادر بودهر که آن حق را نداند خر بود
The One who created the mother, breast, and milk, and paired her with the father: do not take that as independently yours.
آنک مادر آفرید و ضرع و شیربا پدر کردش قرین آن خود مگیر
O Lord, O Ancient One, Your beneficence: what I know and what I do not know is all Yours.
ای خداوند ای قدیم احسان توآنکه دانم وانکه نه هم آن تو
You commanded, Remember the right, for My right does not grow old.
تو بفرمودی که حق را یاد کنزانک حق من نمی گردد کهن
Remember the kindness I did that morning for you, preserving you in Noah's ark.
یاد کن لطفی که کردم آن صبوحبا شما از حفظ در کشتی نوح
At that time I gave the cocoon of your forefathers safety from the Flood and its wave.
پیله بابایانتان را آن زماندادم از طوفان و از موجش امان
Fire-natured water had seized the earth; its wave was snatching away the summit of the mountain.
آب آتش خو زمین بگرفته بودموج او مر اوج که را می ربود
I preserved you; I did not reject you in the existence of your forefather's forefather's forefather.
حفظ کردم من نکردم ردتاندر وجود جد جد جدتان
Since you have become a head, how should I strike the back of your foot?
چون شدی سر، پشت پایت چون زنمکارگاه خویش ضایع چون کنم
How should I waste My own workshop?
چون فدای بی وفایان می شویاز گمان بد بدان سو می روی
How do you make yourself a sacrifice for the faithless, going toward that side through evil suspicion?
من ز سهو و بی وفایی ها بریسوی من آیی گمان بد بری
I am free of forgetfulness and faithlessness; when you come toward Me, do you bring evil suspicion?
این گمان بد بر آنجا بر که تومی شوی در پیش همچون خود دوتو
Take that evil suspicion there, where you bend double before someone like yourself.
بس گرفتی یار و همراهان زفتگر تو را پرسم که کو گویی که رفت
You took many stout friends and companions; if I ask you where they are, you say, They went away.
یار نیکت رفت بر چرخ برینیار فسقت رفت در قعر زمین
Your good friend went to the highest heaven; your sinful friend went into the depth of the earth.
تو بماندی در میانه آنچنانبی مدد چون آتشی از کاروان
You remained in between, without help, like a fire left behind by a caravan.
دامن او گیر ای یار دلیرکو منزه باشد از بالا و زیر
Take hold of His hem, O courageous friend, for He is beyond above and below.
نه چو عیسی سوی گردون بر شودنه چو قارون در زمین اندر رود
He does not ascend to heaven like Jesus, nor go down into the earth like Qarun.
با تو باشد در مکان و بی مکانچون بمانی از سرا و از دکان
He is with you in place and placelessness when you are left without house and shop.
او بر آرد از کدورت ها صفامر جفاهای تو را گیرد وفا
He brings clarity out of turbidities; He takes your wrongs as fidelity.
چون جفا آری فرستد گوشمالتا ز نقصان وا روی سوی کمال
When you bring wrong, He sends a reprimand so that you turn back from deficiency toward perfection.
چون تو وردی ترک کردی در روشبر تو قبضی آید از رنج و تبش
When, on the path, you abandon a litany, contraction comes upon you from distress and fever.
آن ادب کردن بود یعنی مکنهیچ تحویلی از آن عهد کهن
That is discipline, meaning: make no alteration in that ancient covenant.
پیش از آن کین قبض زنجیری شوداین که دلگیریست پاگیری شود
Before this contraction becomes a chain, before this heart-tightness becomes a fetter on the foot, your intelligible pain becomes sensory and manifest, so that you do not take this sign for nothing.
رنج معقولت شود محسوس و فاشتا نگیری این اشارت را بلاش
In sins, contractions became heart-tightness; after death, contractions became chains.
در معاصی قبض ها دلگیر شدقبض ها بعد از اجل زنجیر شد
We give whoever turns away here from Our remembrance a straitened life, and We recompense with blindness.
نعط من اعرض هنا عن ذکرناعیشة ضنک و نجزی بالعمی
When a thief steals people's property, contraction and heart-tightness prick his heart.
دزد چون مال کسان را می بردقبض و دلتنگی دلش را می خلد
He keeps saying, Strange, what is this contraction?
او همی گوید « عجب این قبض چیست »قبض آن مظلوم کز شرت گریست
It is the contraction of the oppressed one who wept because of your evil.
چون بدین قبض التفاتی کم کندباد اصرار آتشش را دم کند
When he pays little attention to this contraction, the wind of persistence fans his fire.
قبض دل قبض عوان شد لاجرمگشت محسوس آن معانی زد علم
The heart's contraction becomes the officer's grip; inevitably that meaning becomes sensory and raises its banner.
غصه ها زندان شدست و چارمیخغصه بیخ است و بروید شاخ بیخ
Sorrows have become prison and the rack; sorrow is a root, and branches grow from the root.
بیخ پنهان بود هم شد آشکارقبض و بسط اندرون بیخی شمار
The root was hidden, but it too became manifest; count inner contraction and expansion as roots.
چونکه بیخ بد بود زودش بزنتا نروید زشت خاری در چمن
When the root is bad, cut it quickly so that an ugly thorn does not grow in the meadow.
قبض دیدی ، چارهٔ آن قبض کنزانک سرها جمله می روید ز بن
When you see contraction, remedy that contraction, for all heads grow from the root.
بسط دیدی ، بسط خود را آب دهچون بر آید میوه با اصحاب ده
When you see expansion, water your expansion; when fruit comes forth, give it to companions.
