بخش ۳۹ - جواب / Section 39 - Answer

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

یکی دریاست هستی، نطق ساحلصدف حرف و جواهر دانش دل
Being is an ocean, speech is the shore,
The shell is the word, and pearls are the knowledge of the heart.
به هر موجی هزاران در شهواربرون ریزد ز نقل و نص و اخبار
With every wave, thousands of royal pearls
Are cast out from narration, scripture, and traditions.
هزاران موج خیزد هر دم از وینگردد قطره ای هرگز کم از وی
Thousands of waves rise from it at every moment,
Yet not a single drop is ever diminished from it.
وجود علم از آن دریای ژرف استغلاف در او از صوت و حرف است
The existence of knowledge is from that deep ocean,
The sheath of its pearl consists of sound and word.
معانی چون کند اینجا تنزلضرورت باشد آن را از تمثل
When meanings descend to this level,
They must of necessity be expressed through metaphors.
