دفتر سوم - بخش ۶۳ - در جامهٔ خواب افتادن استاد و نالیدن او از وهم رنجوری / Book Three - Section 63 - The Master Falling into Bed and Lamenting from the Delusion of Illness

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

جامه خواب آورد و گسترد آن عجوزگفت امکان نه و باطن پر ز سوز
The old woman brought the bedding and spread it,
Saying: "I cannot speak, and my heart is full of burning.
گر بگویم متهم دارد مراور نگویم جد شود این ماجرا
If I speak, he will accuse me;
If I do not speak, this matter will grow grave."
فال بد رنجور گرداند همیآدمی را که نبودستش غمی
An ill omen makes sick
The person who had no ailment.
قول پیغامبر قبوله یفرضان تمارضتم لدینا تمرضوا
The Prophet's saying — its acceptance is required:
"If you feign illness before Us, you shall truly fall ill."
گر بگویم او خیالی بر زندفعل دارد زن که خلوت می کند
"If I speak, he will conjure a fantasy:
'A woman has affairs she keeps private;
مر مرا از خانه بیرون می کندبهر فسقی فعل و افسون می کند
She is driving me out of the house —
For some debauchery she performs deeds and enchantments.'"
جامه خوابش کرد و استاد اوفتادآه آه و ناله از وی می بزاد
She made his bedding ready and the master lay down;
Ah, ah — lamentations poured out of him.
کودکان آنجا نشستند و نهاندرس می خواندند با صد اندهان
The children sat there and in silence
Were reciting their lessons with a hundred sorrows,
کین همه کردیم و ما زندانییمبد بنایی بود ما بد بانییم
Saying: "We did all this and yet we are prisoners —
The foundation was ill-laid; we are poor custodians."
