بخش ۲۵ - اندر ترک دنیا و ریاضت نفس گوید / Section 25 - He Speaks on Renouncing the World and Disciplining the Self

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

ای بلندان به عقل و جان شریفمکنید آن بلندی را تصحیف
O you who are elevated in intellect and noble in soul,
Do not misinterpret that elevation.
در کفایت بلند رای شدیدآن بلندی چرا پلید کنید
In competence you became high-minded;
Why do you defile that elevation?
خویشتن را ندیده اید همهآدم نورسیده اید همه
None of you have seen yourselves;
You are all newly-arrived Adams.
همه را در ولایت یزدانراستی قالبست و معنی جان
For everyone in the dominion of God,
Truth is the form and meaning is the soul.
زین زمین جز کسان آدم رانردبان نیست بام عالم را
From this earth, except for the people of Adam,
There is no ladder to the roof of the universe.
مایهٔ کفر و پایهٔ دین استنردبان پایهٔ خرد این است
It is the substance of infidelity and the foundation of religion;
This ladder is the step of intellect.
این هم از فعل تست کاندر تاباز سر آب رفته ای به سراب
This too is from your action that in distress,
From the source of water you have gone to a mirage.
سر آبت سراب شد چکنیعقل و دینت خراب شد چکنی
Your source of water became a mirage, what will you do?
Your intellect and religion became ruined, what will you do?
میوهٔ این و آن مچین پیوستچون درختان میوه دارت هست
Do not constantly gather the fruit of this and that,
Since you have fruit-bearing trees.
نور خواهی به دست موسی واردست در گرد جیب خویش برآر
If you want light in your hand like Moses,
Bring your hand out from your own collar.
راه مدین نرفته پیش شعیبچند گردی به گرد پردهٔ غیب
Having not gone the way of Midian before Jethro,
How long will you circle around the veil of the unseen?
تا بده ساعتی شبان رمهچون برآری عصا به روی همه
Until you are a shepherd of the flock for a while,
How will you raise the staff against everyone?
دل بدان نه که باشد از خانهپشک تو به ز مشت بیگانه
Set your heart on this: that from the house,
Your own meager portion is better than the handful of a stranger.
همه نعمت ترا شده حاصلتو ز اسباب و خان و مان غافل
All bounties have been attained by you;
You are heedless of possessions, home, and family.
خوانت از هرچه نعمت است پرستلیک در دست موش سفره برست
Your table is full of every bounty,
But it has been carried away by the mouse of the tablecloth.
نبود چون تو ابله هیچ بخیلکاب لیسی همی تو بر لب نیل
There is no miser as foolish as you,
For you lap up water while on the bank of the Nile.
زهد اصلی رساندت در وصلزاهد مشتری ندارد اصل
True asceticism brings you to union;
The ascetic who is a buyer has no essence.
هرچه از سعی طبعی و فلکیستنیست ملک تو ملکت ملکیست
Whatever is from natural and celestial effort,
Is not your property; it is the property of the Sovereign.
چرخ را فرش او نوردیدستهمچنو کارهاش گردیدست
He has rolled up the carpet of the wheel (sky);
Likewise His affairs have turned.
هیزم بیهده مخواه از کسآتش دل بس است با همه خس
Do not vainly seek firewood from anyone;
The fire of the heart is enough along with all the thorns.
دارد از بهر پختگی درویشهیزم خشک ز آتش دل خویش
The dervish has, for the sake of maturity,
Dry firewood from the fire of his own heart.
آتش جان تو بدست صوابشسته اند اختران به هفتاد آب
The fire of your soul, by the hand of rectitude,
The stars have washed with seventy waters.
جنبش جبر خلق عالم راستجنبش اختیار آدم راست
The movement of compulsion belongs to the creatures of the world;
The movement of free will belongs to Adam.
