بخش ۲۹ - اندر وجود و عدم / Section 29 - On Existence and Non-Existence

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

جهد کن تا زنیست هست شویوز شراب خدای مست شوی
Strive so that you become existent from non-existence,
and become drunk from the wine of God.
باشد آنرا که دین کند هستشگوی و چوگان دهر در دستش
Whomever religion makes existent,
the ball and polo-mallet of time are in his hand.
چون ازاین جرعه گشت جان تو مستبر بلندی هست گردی پست
When your soul becomes drunk from this sip,
you will become low upon the heights of existence.
هرکه آزاد کرد آنجایستحلقه در گوش و بند برپایست
Whomever He sets free there
has a ring in the ear and a shackle on the foot.
لیکن آن بند به که مرکب بختلیکن آن حلقه به که حلقهٔ تخت
Yet that shackle is better than the steed of fortune,
yet that ring is better than the ring of the throne.
بند کو برنهد تو تاج شمرور پلاست دهد دواج شمر
Consider the shackle He places on you as a crown,
and if He gives you coarse felt, consider it a fine quilt.
زانکه هم محسنست و هم مجملزانکه هم مکرمست و هم مفضل
For He is both the Benefactor and the Beautiful-Doer,
for He is both the Generous and the Bestower of favors.
چه کنی بهر بی نوایی راشادی و زیرک و بهایی را
Why do you worry about destitution,
or value joy, cleverness, and worth?
شاد ازو باش و زیرک از دینشتا بیابی رضا و تمکینش
Be glad in Him and wise in His religion,
so that you may find His pleasure and steadfastness.
زیرک آنست کوش برداردشادی آنست کوش نگذارد
The wise one is he who bears His burden,
joy is that which He does not leave.
نیکبخت آن کسی که بندهٔ اوستدر همه کارها بسنده بر اوست
Fortunate is he who is His servant,
and in all matters, finds Him sufficient.
چون از این شاخها شدی بی برگدستها در کمر کنی با مرگ
When you become leafless from these branches,
you will put your arms around the waist of death.
نشوی مرگ را دگر منکریابی از عالم حیات خبر
You will no longer deny death,
and you will receive news from the world of life.
دست تو چون به شاخ مرگ رسیدپای تو گرد کاخ برگ دوید
When your hand reaches the branch of death,
your foot runs around the palace of leaves.
پای کز طارم هدی دورستنیست پای آن دماغ مخمورست
A foot that is far from the vault of guidance
is not a foot; it is a drunken brain.
