بخش ۶ - فی عزّة‌القرآن انّها لیست بالاعشار والاخماس / Section 6 - On the Glory of the Quran: That it is Not about Tenths and Fifths

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

بهر یک مشت کودک از وسواسنامش اعشار کرده ای و اخماس
For the sake of a handful of children, out of obsession,
You have named it tenths and fifths.
کرده منسوخ حکم هر ناسخنشده در علوم آن راسخ
You have abrogated the ruling of every abrogator,
Without becoming firmly rooted in its sciences.
متشابه ترا شده محکمکرده بر محکمش معول کم
The ambiguous has become clear to you,
And you rely little on its clear verses.
تو رها کرده نور قرآن راوز پی عامه صورت آنرا
You have abandoned the light of the Quran,
And followed its outward form for the sake of the common folk.
ساخته دست موزهٔ سالوسبهر یک من جو و دو کاسه سبوس
You have made it a tool of hypocrisy,
For the sake of a maund of barley and two bowls of bran.
گه سرودش کنی و گاه مثلگاه سازی ازو سلاح جدل
Sometimes you make it a song, sometimes a proverb,
Sometimes you make it a weapon of disputation.
گه زنی در همش به بی ادبیگه شمارش کنی به بوالعجبی
Sometimes you jumble it up rudely,
Sometimes you count its parts with eccentricity.
گه ز پایان به سر بری به خیالگه درونش برون کنی به محال
Sometimes in your imagination you read it from end to beginning,
Sometimes you absurdly turn its inside out.
گه کنی بر قیاس خود تأویلگه کنی حکم را برین تحویل
Sometimes you interpret it based on your own analogy,
Sometimes you distort its ruling accordingly.
گه به رای خودش کنی تفسیرگه به علم خودش کنی تقریر
Sometimes you explain it according to your own opinion,
Sometimes you state it using your own knowledge.
می نگردی مگر به بیغارهگرد صندوقهای سی پاره
You do not wander except mockingly
Around the boxes of the thirty-part volumes.
گاه گویی رفیق جاهل رایا نه کرباس باف کاهل را
Sometimes you say to an ignorant friend,
Or to a lazy weaver of canvas:
که نویسم ترا یکی تعویذپاک دار ای جوان مدار پلیذ
'I shall write an amulet for you;
Keep it clean, O youth, and do not defile it.
لیک هدیه پگاه می بایدخون مرغ سیاه می باید
But the reward must be paid early in the morning,
And the blood of a black fowl is required.'
این همه حیله بهر یک دو درمشام تا چاشتی ز بهر شکم
All this trickery is for the sake of one or two dirhams,
From evening to breakfast, just to fill the belly.
عمر بر داده ای به خیره به بادمن چه گویم برو که شرمت باد
You have foolishly thrown your life to the wind;
What can I say to you? Go, and shame on you!
در یکی مسجدی خزی به هوسحلق پر بانگ همچو نای و جرس
You creep into a mosque out of self-interest,
Your throat full of clamor like a flute and a bell.
زین هوس شرم شرع و دینت بادیا خرد یا اجل قرینت باد
May the sacred law and your religion shame you for this lust,
May either wisdom or death be your companion.
با چنین خود و فضل و فرهنگتشرم بادا که نیست خود ننگت
With such pride, learning, and culture of yours,
Shame on you that you do not feel disgraced!
