آنچه فرض دین نسل آدمست	نعت صدر وبدر هر دو عالمست
What is the religious duty of Adam's race Is the praise of the foremost and the full moon of both worlds

پیشوای انبیا و مرسلین	مقتدای اولین و آخرین
The leader of prophets and messengers The guide of the first and the last

مرجع خلق و امام کائنات	فعل او هم حجت و هم معجزات

گوهر دریای تقوی ذات او	تا ابدداعی حق دعوات او
The pearl of the sea of piety is his essence Until eternity, his call is the summoner to Truth
پایمرد هر دو عالم آمده	دستگیر نسل آدم آمده
He has come as the intercessor of both worlds He has come as the helper of Adam's progeny
عقل کل جزوی ز عکس جان او	کل شده هر جزو از ایمان او

نوبت منشور او ادنی زده	لانبی بعدی این طغرازده

Old Adam has come as a child on his path Seeking his law, coming for milk
جلوه کرده آفتاب روی او	آسمان صد سجده برده سوی او
The sun of his face has manifested The sky has bowed down a hundred times toward him
نقطهٔ و نوباوهٔ کونین اوست	قدوه و اعجوبهٔ ثقلین اوست
He is the focal point and the first fruit of the two worlds He is the model and the marvel of humans and jinn
آنکه در صورت بمعنی عالمیست	زافرینش آفرینش هر دمیست
He who in form is, in meaning, a world From his creation, there is a creation at every moment
هشت جنت جرعهٔ از جام او	هر دوعالم از دومیم نام او
The eight paradises are a sip from his cup Both worlds (alam) are from the two 'm's of his name (Mohammad)
نیست عالم را مگر یک میم قسم	پس محمد را دومیم آمد ز اسم
The world (alam) has only a share of one 'm' Thus, Mohammad has two 'm's in his name
لاجرم یک عالم از یک میم اوست	وان دوم عالم ز دیگر نیم اوست
Inevitably, one world is from one of his 'm's And the second world is from his other half
خواجهٔ اولاد عالم اوست بس	شمع جمع هر دو عالم اوست بس
He is truly the master of the children of the world He is truly the candle of the gathering of both worlds
قطب اصل او بود پیدا و نهان	سر از آن بر کرد از ناف جهان
The pole of his origin was visible and hidden For that reason, he emerged from the navel of the world (Mecca)
او نبی السیف از آن بی حیف بود	کو علی دین کحدالسیف بود
He was the Prophet of the Sword, hence without injustice For he was upon a religion like the edge of the sword
او نبی بود ازدرون واز برون	قال نحن الاخرون السابقون

پرتو هر دو جهان عکس دلش	شش درهفت آسمان یک منزلش
The radiance of both worlds is the reflection of his heart The six directions in the seven heavens are his one stage
آنکه از دو ثلث دین اعزاز یافت	سوزن از نورش بشب در بازیافت
He from whom two-thirds of religion found honor (Aisha) Found the needle at night by his light
چیست والشمس آفتاب روی او	چیست واللیل آیت گیسوی او
What is "By the Sun"? The sun of his face What is "By the Night"? The sign of his locks
نوش داروی همه دلها ازوست	حل وعقد کل مشکلها ازوست
The healing remedy for all hearts is from him The unravelling and binding of all difficulties is from him
هرکجا شق شد زمین مشکلات	گشت طالع آفتاب کائنات
Wherever the ground of difficulties was cleft The sun of the cosmos rose
چون زمین راشق بود اول بدو	مشکل پوشیده گردد حل بدو
Since the splitting of the earth is first for him The hidden difficulty is solved by him
قطب عرش و فرشو کرسی اوست بس	چون گذشت از حق چه پرسی اوست بس
He is truly the pole of the Throne, the Earth, and the Pedestal Since he passed from truth, what do you ask? It is only him
بی صبا گل کی برآید از قبا	او گل غیبست منصور از صبا
Without the breeze (Saba), when does the rose emerge from its robe? He is the rose of the unseen, aided by the Saba wind
ز ابتدا تا انتها در کار بود	از قدم تا فرق در اسرار بود
From the beginning to the end, he was at work From foot to crown, he was immersed in mysteries
ز ملینی باخدیجه زابتداش	کلمینی یا حمیرا ز انتهاش
From "cover me" (zammiluni) with Khadija at his beginning To "speak to me, O Humayra" at his end
چون بیفزود او نبوت را جمال	جان ماضی کرد از استقبال حال
When he added beauty to prophethood The soul made the past from the welcoming of the present
کار جسمش دق عظمی بود بس	جانش ازواشتد شوقی زد نفس
The work of his body was just extreme thinness His soul breathed from "my longing grew intense"
سینهٔ او را برای فتح باب	طشت آورد آفتاب و کوثر آب
To open the door of his chest The sun brought a basin and Kawthar brought water
جان پاکش تا ابد ز آب حیات	دست شست از جمله کون وکاینات
His pure soul, for eternity, from the water of life Washed its hands of all existence and beings
تا که طشت از سینه او دور شد	طشت چرخ از عکس او پرنور شد
As soon as the basin was removed from his chest The basin of the celestial sphere became full of light from his reflection
تا که شد نعل براق او هلال	هر سر ماهی شود نو از کمال
Since the horseshoe of his Buraq became the crescent moon At the start of every month, it becomes new out of perfection
آفتاب از خوان او یک گرده بود	گرچه از حد بیش گرمی کرده بود
The sun was a single flatbread from his table Even though it had radiated excessive heat
بود کیوان هندو چوبک زنش	زنگی شب از قمر طبلک زنش
Saturn was the Hindu night-watchman striking the wood for him The blackness of the night from the moon was his drummer
زهره دایم خاک روبی بردرش	مشتری اقضی القضاة لشکرش

هم ز کین مریخ دشمن سوز او	هم عطارد طفل نو آموز او

در بر لطفش که جان عالمیست	آب حیوان قطره و کوثر نیست
Beside his grace, which is the soul of a world The water of life is but a drop and Kawthar is nothing
در بر خلقش که خلق آنست و بس	حله فردوس خلقانست و بس
Beside his character, which is true character and that is all The garment of Paradise is merely worn-out rags
در بر جودش متاع خشک و تر	یک جوآرد وزن اما خشک تر
Beside his generosity, the goods of wet and dry Weigh one barleycorn, but even drier
در بر علمش بدست کبریا	هم ملایک خوشه چین هم انبیا
Beside his knowledge, at the hand of the Divine Grandeur Both angels and prophets are gleaners
در بر حلمش که کوه ساکنست	در زمین صد لرزهٔ ناایمنست
Beside his forbearance, which is a still mountain The earth has a hundred unsafe tremors
چون زغیب الغیب سر از سر بتافت	نور را همرنگ خود کرد آنچه یافت
When from the unseen of the unseen he turned his head from the mystery He made whatever light he found the same color as himself
یوسف صدیق را بر روی زد	خیمه خوبیش سو تا سوی زد

حلق داود از خوشی پرجوش کرد	خلق را از حلق او مدهوش کرد
He made the throat of David bubble with joy He bewildered the people through his throat
بر کف موسی زد و پیدا نمود	تا همه عالم ید بیضا نمود
He struck the hand of Moses and manifested Until the whole world displayed the White Hand
سایه آنگه بر دم عیسی فکند	شور ازو در جملهٔ دنیا فکند
Then he cast a shadow on the breath of Jesus And cast a tumult from him into the entire world
چون محمد اصل پیشان اوفتاد	آن او کافتاد بر جان اوفتاد
Since Muhammad fell as the origin of those before him What fell from him, fell upon the soul
از دو عالم لاجرم در پیش بود	وین عجب تر جان او درویش بود
He was inevitably ahead of both worlds And more wondrously, his soul was a dervish
جان چو آن حق بد آن او نبود	جز بدرویشی نشان او نبود
Since his soul belonged to God, it did not belong to him His mark was nothing but being a dervish
پادشاهی بود احمد از احد	ملک او الفقر فخری تا ابد
Ahmad was a king from the One His kingdom was "Poverty is my pride" until eternity
آفرینش را چو مقصود اوست بس	او بود جاوید حق را دوست بس
Since he is truly the purpose of creation He will eternally be the true friend of God
در همه آفاق پیغامبر نبود	تا یکی پیغامبرش هم بر نبود
There was no prophet in all the horizons Until one prophet became his equal
لیک ختم جملهٔ پیغامبران	بود مستغنی نه همچون دیگران
But the seal of all prophets Was self-sufficient, not like the others
تا بود چون مصطفی پیغامبری	چون بود در سایه او دیگری
As long as there is a prophet like Mustafa How can another be in his shadow?
در فروع آفتاب خاوری	چون کند آخر چراغی رهبری
In the rays of the Eastern Sun How can a lamp provide guidance, after all?
نه پیمبر گفت اگر اکنون کلیم	زنده بودی پیروم بودی مقیم
Did the Prophet not say: "If Moses the Interlocutor were alive now, He would permanently be my follower"?
عیسی مریم که شد بر آسمان	پس روی او کند آخر زمان
Jesus, son of Mary, who ascended to heaven Will follow him in the end times
هندو او شد مسیح نامدار	زان مبشر نام کردش کردگار
The renowned Messiah became his servant For that reason, the Creator named him the bringer of glad tidings
بعد ازو پیغامبری امکان نداشت	پیش ازو کس بیش ازو ایمان نداشت
After him, prophethood was not possible Before him, no one had more faith than him
یافت اندر عهد او ایمان کمال	نیست برتر ازکمال الا زوال
