بخش ۵ - در بیداری از خواب غفلت گوید / Section 5 - He Speaks on Awakening from the Sleep of Heedlessness

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

بنه ای عدل تو بقای جهاندر کنار جهان سزای جهان
Lay down, O your justice, the permanence of the world,
In the lap of the world, the merit of the world.
چون در عدل باز شد بر تودر دوزخ فراز شد بر تو
When the door of justice was opened to you,
The door of hell was closed to you.
عدل مر مرگ را بریزد آبجور مر فتنه را ببندد خواب
Justice pours water on death,
Tyranny binds the sleep of sedition.
هست شادی دل ستمگارانخوش و اندک چو خواب بیماران
The joy of the hearts of the oppressors is
Pleasant and brief like the sleep of the sick.
عقل را مشگریست روح افزایعدل مشاطه ایست ملک آرای
For the intellect there is a soul-enhancing musk-seller,
Justice is a kingdom-adorning cosmetologist.
شرع را عقل قهرمان باشدملک را عدل پاسبان باشد
For the religious law, intellect is the champion,
For the kingdom, justice is the guardian.
شاه باید غلام تن نبودتا خطیبش دروغ زن نبود
A king must not be a slave to the body,
So that his preacher would not be a liar.
پشه از پیل کم زید بسیارزانکه کوته بقا بود خونخوار
The mosquito lives much less than the elephant,
Because the blood-drinker is short-lived.
