بخش ۶۳ - فی الصّلوة و الرّغبة / Section 63 - On Prayer and Aspiration

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

بارگی را بساز آلت و زیناز پی بارگاه علیین
Prepare the mount's gear and saddle
For the sake of the high court of Heaven.
با دعا یار کن انابت حقتا قبولت کند اجابت حق
Join your repentance to God with prayer
So that God's acceptance may receive you.
گه گه آیی ز بهر فرض نمازاز حقیقت جدا قرین مجاز
From time to time you come for the obligatory prayer,
Separated from reality, coupled with the metaphorical (illusion).
بی دعا و تضرع و زارییک دو رکعت بغفله بگزاری
Without prayer, supplication, and weeping,
You perform one or two rak'ahs in negligence.
ظن چنان آیدت که هست نمازبه خدای ار دهندت ایچ جواز
You suppose that this is prayer;
By God, they will not grant you any passage for this.
بی تو باشد به پاک برگیردکز تو آلوده گشت نپذیرد
If it is free of you (your ego), the Pure One will accept it;
Since it became polluted by you, He will not receive it.
نامه ای کز زبان درد رودآن رسول از جهان مرد رود
A letter that comes from the tongue of pain,
That messenger departs from the world of mortal men.
چون ز نزد نیاز باشد پیکاز تو یارب بود وزو لبیک
When the messenger is sent from the court of need,
From you comes 'O Lord' and from Him comes 'Labbayk' (Here I am).
نه جوانی که حرفش آلایدبل جوانی که جان بیاساید
Not a youth whose words defile,
But a youth who brings peace to the soul.
کرده در ره دعای ما برجایصد هزاران عوان صوت سرای
Uttered in the path of our prayer,
A hundred thousand helpers singing voices.
راه از این و از آن چه باید جستدرد تو رهنمای مقصد تست
Why should the path be sought from this one and that one?
Your pain is the guide to your destination.
با رعونت شوی به نزد خدایجامهٔ کبریا کشان در پای
You go to God with vanity,
Dragging the robes of grandeur under your feet,
همچو خواجه که در خرام شودبه بر بنده و غلام شود
Like a master who struts along,
And goes before his servant and slave.
بار منت نهی همی بر ویکه منم دوستدار عز علی
You lay a burden of obligation upon Him, saying:
'I am the lover of the High Glory.'
دوست دانی نه بنده مر خود رااین بود رسم مرد بخرد را
You consider yourself a friend, not a servant;
Is this the custom of a wise man?
این چنین طاعت ای پسر آن بهکه نیاری برش بر و مسته
Such worship, O son, it is better
That you do not bring before Him, as it is ugly and ruined.
بی هدی آدمی کم از دده استهرکه او بی هدیست بیهده است
Without guidance, man is less than a wild beast;
Whoever is without guidance is futile.
توبه زین طاعت تو ای نادانخویشتن را دگر تو بنده مخوان
Repent of this worship of yours, O foolish one!
Do not call yourself a servant anymore.
گر ترا در زمانه بودی عونکم نبودی به فعل از فرعون
If you had any power in the world,
You would not be less than Pharaoh in action.
که وی از غایت پریشانیوز کمال غرور و نادانی
For he, out of extreme confusion,
And from the height of pride and ignorance,
چون سر بندگی و عجز نداشتپرده از روی کار خود برداشت
Since he had no head for servitude and helplessness,
Lifted the veil from his true state.
گفت من برتر از خدایانمدر جهان از بلند رایانم
He said, 'I am supreme over all gods;
In the world, I am of the high-minded.'
همه را این غرور و نخوت هستلفظ فرعون بهر جبلت هست
Everyone has this pride and arrogance;
The word 'Pharaoh' exists for this human nature.
لیکن از بیم سر نیارد گفتدارد آن راز خویشتن بنهفت
But out of fear, one does not dare speak it,
And keeps that secret hidden within.
