بخش ۵ - تمثیل در بیان سر پنهانی حق در عین پیدایی / Section 5 - A Parable Explaining the Secret of God's Hiddenness in the Midst of Manifestation

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

اگر خورشید بر یک حال بودیشعاع او به یک منوال بودی
If the sun were always in one state,
And its rays were of one constant manner,
ندانستی کسی کین پرتو اوستنبودی هیچ فرق از مغز تا پوست
No one would know that this is its ray,
There would be no difference between the core and the skin.
جهان جمله فروغ نور حق دانحق اندر وی ز پیدایی است پنهان
Know that the entire world is the radiance of God's light,
God is hidden within it by His very manifestation.
چو نور حق ندارد نقل و تحویلنیابد ذات او تغییر و تبدیل
Since the light of God has no transfer or transformation,
His essence finds no change or alteration.
تو پنداری جهان خود هست دائمبه ذات خویشتن پیوسته قائم
You think the world is eternal in itself,
And is constantly self-sustaining by its own essence.
کسی کاو عقل دوراندیش داردبسی سرگشتگی در پیش دارد
He who possesses a far-seeing intellect,
Has much bewilderment before him.
ز دوراندیشی عقل فضولییکی شد فلسفی، دیگر حلولی
From the far-seeing of a meddlesome intellect,
One became a philosopher, another an incarnationist.
خرد را نیست تاب نور آن رویبرو از بهر او چشمی دگر جوی
Reason has not the strength to endure the light of that Face,
Go, seek another eye for His sake.
دو چشم فلسفی چون بود احولز وحدت دیدن حق شد معطل
Because the two eyes of the philosopher were cross-eyed,
He was hindered from seeing the unity of God.
ز نابینایی آمد رای تشبیهز یک چشمی است ادراکات تنزیه
From blindness came the opinion of anthropomorphism,
From being one-eyed come the perceptions of transcendence.
تناسخ زان جهت شد کفر و باطلکه آن از تنگ چشمی گشت حاصل
Reincarnation became infidelity and falsehood for the reason
That it resulted from narrowness of vision.
چو اکمه بی نصیب از هر کمال استکسی کاو را طریق اعتزال است
Like one born blind, deprived of all perfection,
Is he whose path is that of the Mu'tazilites.
رمد دارد دو چشم اهل ظاهرکه از ظاهر نبیند جز مظاهر
The two eyes of the people of outward appearance have ophthalmia,
For from the outward, they see nothing but the manifestations.
کلامی کاو ندارد ذوق توحیدبه تاریکی در است از غیم تقلید
The theologian who has no taste for Divine Unity,
Is in darkness from the cloud of imitation.
در او هرچ آن بگفتند از کم و بیشنشانی داده اند از دیدهٔ خویش
Whatever they have said about it, more or less,
They have given an indication from their own vision.
منزه ذاتش از چند و چه و چون«تعالیٰ» شانه «عما یقولون»
His Essence is free from how much, what, and how,
'Exalted is His state above what they say.'
