بخش ۱۸ - اشارت به ذکر خفیه که گفته اند لایطلع علیه ملک فیکتبه و لا نفس فتعجب به / Section 18 - Allusion to the Hidden Remembrance, of Which They Have Said: No Angel Discovers It to Record It, and No Soul to Become Conceited by It

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

ذکر گنج است و گنج پنهان بهجهد کن داد ذکر پنهان ده
Remembrance is a treasure, and a treasure is better hidden;
Strive to render the due of hidden remembrance.
به زبان گنگ شو به لب خاموشنیست محرم درین معامله گوش
Become mute in tongue, silent on the lips;
The ear is not a confidant in this transaction.
به دل و جان نهفته گوی که دیونبرد پی بدان به حیله و ریو
Speak it hiddenly with heart and soul, so that the demon
Cannot track it down through trickery and deceit.
نفس را مطلع مساز بر آنتا نیفتد ز عجب رخنه در آن
Do not make the ego aware of it,
Lest conceit cause a breach in it.
بر ملک نیز کشف آن مپسندورنه زان راز برگشاید بند
Do not allow it to be revealed to the angel either,
Otherwise, it will untie the knot of that secret;
کند آن را پی بقا و ثباتثبت در طی دفتر حسنات
And to preserve and stabilize it,
Will record it in the scroll of good deeds.
