متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

چنین گفت آن حکیم نغز پاسخکه چون از قصر شه گم گشت گلرخ
Thus spoke that wise and eloquent master:
When the rose-cheeked one (Golrokh) vanished from the king's palace,
شدند از هر سویی گل را طلبگارنیامد هیچ باد از گل خبردار
They sought Gol from every side,
But no breeze brought any news of Gol.
فغان برداشت شاه و اشک بگشاددلش صد جوی خون از رشک بگشاد
The king lamented and shed tears,
His heart released a hundred streams of blood from longing.
بدل میگفت: روزی چند گردونبترکم گفت، بازم برد در خون
He said to his heart: 'For a few days the sphere
Turned away from me and plunged me back into blood.
جهانا هرچه بتوانی بخواریبکن با من، زهی ناسازگاری
O world! Treat me with as much contempt as you can,
Oh, what discord!
چو در خون، زار میگردم فلک وارچرا آخر نمیسوزم بیکبار
Since I wander wretchedly in blood like the cosmos,
Why do I not burn away all at once in the end?
تن من سوختست از گل بصدرشکدلم پر آتشست و دیده پر اشک
My body is burnt with a hundred longings for Gol,
My heart is full of fire and my eyes are full of tears.
ز چشم این سوخته چون نم گرفتستدرون آبست آتش کم گرفتست
Since moisture has filled the eyes of this burnt one,
The fire within the water has subsided.
کجاآتش کند در من اثر نیزنسوزد سوخته بار دگر نیز
Where can fire affect me anymore?
A burnt thing does not burn a second time.
منم گل کرده خاک، از آب دیدهز باد سرد دل، آتش دمیده
I have turned the earth to clay with the tears of my eyes,
And from the cold wind of my heart, fire has breathed.
دلی دارم بزیر کوه اندوهچو کاهی ناتوان و میکشد کوه
I have a heart beneath a mountain of sorrow;
Though weak as straw, it carries a mountain.
شدم دیوانه از سوز جداییچه سازم با غم روز جدایی
I have gone mad from the burning of separation;
What shall I do with the grief of the day of separation?
کجا، کی، ای دلم با خویش بردهغمت خواب من دلریش برده
Where and when, O you who took my heart with you,
Has your grief stolen the sleep of my wounded heart?
چو پنهان گشت عالم بینم، آخرچگونه نیز عالم بینم آخر
Since my world-beholding beloved has vanished,
How can I behold the world anymore?
بخون بردوختم چشم از زمانهکه پرخونست و خون از وی روانه
I have sewn my eyes shut with blood from the times,
For it is full of blood, and blood flows from it.
خداوندا، مرا زین درد برهانز سوز هر و آه سرد برهان
O Lord, deliver me from this pain,
Deliver me from the burning of sighs and cold sighs.
مرا پیدا کن این راز نهانیکه بر من تلخ شد عیش جوانی
Reveal to me this hidden secret,
For the pleasure of youth has turned bitter to me.'
چو برجان زد گره چندانک خواهیگشادش آن گره فضل الهی
No matter how many knots he tied upon his soul,
Divine grace untied those knots.
یکی هندو زنی، از مطبخ شاهرخ گل دیده بود آن روز در راه
A Hindu woman from the king's kitchen
Had seen Gol's face on the road that day,
که حسنا در برش میرفت چون تیربیامد پیش خسرو، کرد تقریر
As Hosna walked beside her like an arrow.
She came before Khosrow and related the story.
برخودخواند حسنا را شه آنگاهچو حسنا را، نظر افتاد بر شاه
The king then summoned Hosna to his presence.
As Hosna's gaze fell upon the king,
چوبرگ بید، لرزان گشت از بیمرخش شد زعفرانی، دل بدونیم
She trembled like a willow leaf from fear,
Her face turned yellow as saffron, and her heart split in two.
ازان هیبت زبانش رفت از کارتو گفتی میدهد برخویش اقرار
From that dread, her tongue ceased to function;
You would say she was confessing against herself.
مرا یاد این سخن از گفت داناستکه ناید بد دلی با فعل بد راست
I remember this saying from the wise:
'A fearful heart does not align with a wicked deed.'
ز سر تاپای، هر مویش که خواهیهمی دادند بر جرمش گواهی
From head to toe, every hair of hers, if you wanted,
Bore witness to her crime.
نشد بیچاره پیش اندیش ازان کارکه شد در خون جان خویش ازان کار
The helpless one did not foresee the consequences of that deed,
Which put her own life's blood in jeopardy.
بجای آورد حالی شاهزادهکه آن کاریست با حسنا فتاده
The prince immediately realized
That this matter involved Hosna.
شه رومی، چو ترکان کین گرفتهدلش چون جعد زنگی،چین گرفته
The Roman king, filled with vengeance like a Turk,
His heart wrinkled like the hair of a Zanj,
بحسنا گفت: ای سگ رازبگشایفرو بستی مرا، آواز بگشای
Said to Hosna: 'O dog, reveal the secret!
You have silenced me, now open your voice!
بگو تا آن سمنبر را چه کردیگل صد برگ دلبر را چه کردی
Tell me, what did you do to that jasmine-bosomed one?
What did you do to that hundred-petaled rose of a beloved?'
چو حسنا این سخن بشنود از شاهبشه گفتا نیم زین حال آگاه
When Hosna heard these words from the king,
She said to the king: 'I am unaware of this matter.
تو خود دانی امانت داری منوفاداری و عهد و یاری من
You yourself know my trustworthiness,
My loyalty, covenant, and support.'
ولی کان دل بود از گفت خالیسخن گفتن توان دانست حالی
But when the heart is empty of truth,
One can recognize the speech at once.
کسی کو کوژگفتن، خوی داردزبان در راستی کژ گوی دارد
One who has a habit of speaking crookedly
Will speak crookedly even when attempting the truth.
چرا کژ گویی ای من خاک کویتکه کژ گفتن بریزد آب رویت
'Why do you speak crookedly, O you whose dust of the street I am?
For speaking crookedly will destroy your honor.
چو خر بهتر نگردد هیچگونهچه کن پالانش برنه باژگونه
Since a donkey cannot be made better in any way,
What does it matter if you place its saddle backwards?'
شهش فرمود تا چون سگ ببستنددو خادم بر سرو پایش نشستند
The king ordered her to be bound like a dog,
Two servants sat on her head and feet.
بزیر زخم چوبش، پاره کردندز خونش، خاک ره خونخواره کردند
Under the blows of the wooden staff, they tore her to pieces,
And with her blood, they made the dust of the road a blood-drinker.
