متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

قال الله تعالی قل لئن اجتمعت الانس والجن علی ان یأتوا به مثل هذاالقرآن لایأتون به مثله ولو کان بعضهم لبعض ظهیرا، و قال عز من قائل. ولاحبة فی ظلمات الارض ولا رطب ولا یابس الا فی کتاب مبین، و قال النبی علیه السلام: القرآن غنی لافقر بعده و لاغنی دونه، و قال علیه السلام: القرآن هوالدواء من کل دواء الا الموت. و قال ایضا: اهل القرآن هم اهل الله و خاصته، و قال ایضا صلوات الله وسلامه علیه اصدق الحدیث کتاب الله، و قال احمدبن حنبل: القرآن کلام الله غیر مخلوق و من قال مخلوق فهو کافربالله العظیم.
Allah the Almighty said: 'Say, If mankind and the jinn gathered together to produce the like of this Quran, they could not produce the like thereof, even if some of them were to others a helper.' And He said, the Mightiest of Speakers: 'And not a grain in the darknesses of the earth and not a moist or dry thing but that it is in a clear book.' And the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'The Quran is wealth after which there is no poverty and without which there is no wealth.' And he (peace be upon him) said: 'The Quran is the medicine for every ailment except death.' And he also said (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him): 'The people of the Quran are the people of Allah and His chosen ones.' And he also said (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him): 'The truest speech is the Book of Allah.' And Ahmad ibn Hanbal said: 'The Quran is the Word of Allah, uncreated; and whoever says it is created is a disbeliever in Allah the Magnificent.'
سخنش را ز بس لطافت و ظرفصدمت صوت نی و زحمت حرف
His speech, because of its extreme subtlety and elegance,
Is free from the impact of the flute's sound and the burden of the letter.
صفتش را حدوث کی سنجدسخنش در حروف کی گنجد
How can temporality measure His attributes?
How can His speech be contained within letters?
وهم حیران ز شکل صورتهاشعقل واله ز سر سورتهاش
Imagination is bewildered by the shape of its forms;
Reason is dazed by the secrets of its surahs.
مغز و نغز است حرف و سورت اودلبر و دلپذیر صورت او
Its letters and surahs are the pith and the excellence;
Its form is charming and pleasing.
زان گرفته مقیم قوت و قوتزادهٔ ملک و دادهٔ ملکوت
From it, the resident has taken power and sustenance;
Born of the kingdom and given of the celestial realm.
سر او بهر حل مشکلهاروح جانها و راحت دلها
Its secret is for the solution of problems;
The spirit of souls and the comfort of hearts.
دل مجروح را شفا قرآندل پر درد را دوا قرآن
The Quran is the healing for the wounded heart;
The Quran is the medicine for the heart full of pain.
تو کلام خدای را بی شکگر نئی طوطی و حمار و اشک
You, undoubtedly, regarding the Word of God,
If you are not a parrot, a donkey, or an ass:
اصل ایمان و رکن تقوی دانکان یاقوت و گنج معنی دان
Know it as the foundation of faith and the pillar of piety;
Know it as a mine of ruby and a treasure of meaning.
هست قانون حکمت حکماهست معیار عادت علما
It is the law of wisdom for the wise;
It is the standard of habit for the scholars.
نزهت جانها ستایش اوستسلوت عقلها نمایش اوست
The delight of souls is its praise;
The consolation of intellects is its manifestation.
آیت او شفای جان تقیرایتش درد و اندهان شقی
Its verse is the healing for the soul of the God-fearing;
Its banner is the pain and sorrows of the wretched.
عقل و نفس از نهاد او حاجزفصحا از طریق آن عاجز
Reason and soul are barred from its essence;
The eloquent are helpless before its path.
عقل کل را فکنده در شدتنفس کل را نشانده در عدت
It has cast the Universal Intellect into hardship;
It has seated the Universal Soul in preparation.
