متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

بعد از آنش از قفس بیرون فکندطوطیک پرید تا شاخ بلند
After that he flung it out of the cage,
The little parrot flew up to a high branch.
طوطی مرده چنان پرواز کردکآفتاب شرق، ترکی تاز کرد
The dead parrot flew in such a way
As the sun of the East makes its swift Turkish raid.
خواجه حیران گشت اندر کار مرغبی خبر، ناگه بدید اسرار مرغ
The master was astonished at the bird's affair;
Unawares, he suddenly beheld the bird's secrets.
روی بالا کرد و گفت ای عندلیباز بیان حال خود، مان ده نصیب
He raised his face and said: "O nightingale,
Give us a share of the account of your state.
او چه کرد آنجا که تو آموختی ؟ساختی مکری و ما را سوختی ؟
What did that one do there, that you learned it?
You devised a trick and burned us!"
گفت طوطی کاو به فعلم پند دادکه رها کن لطف آواز و وداد
The parrot said: "It counseled me by its deed—
'Abandon the sweetness of voice and affection,
زان که آوازت ترا در بند کردخویشتن مرده، پی این پند کرد
For your voice has put you in bondage'—
It made itself dead in pursuit of this counsel.
یعنی ای مطرب شده با عام و خاصمرده شو چون من که تا یابی خلاص
That is: O you who have become a musician for high and low,
Die like me, so that you may find release.
دانه باشی مرغکانت برچنندغنچه باشی کودکانت برکنند
If you are a seed, birds will peck you up;
If you are a bud, children will pluck you.
دانه پنهان کن به کلی دام شوغنچه پنهان کن گیاه بام شو
Hide the seed; become entirely a snare.
Hide the bud; become a rooftop weed.
هر که داد او حسن خود را در مزادصد قضای بد سوی او رو نهاد
Whoever offers his beauty up for auction,
A hundred evil fates will turn their face toward him.
چشم ها و خشم ها و رشک هابر سرش ریزد چو آب از مشک ها
Evil eyes and rages and envies
Pour down upon him like water from waterskins.
دشمنان او را ز غیرت می درنددوستان هم روزگارش می برند
Enemies tear him apart out of jealousy,
And friends too consume his days.
آنک غافل بود از کشت و بهاراو چه داند قیمت این روزگار ؟
One who is heedless of sowing and spring—
What does he know of the worth of this time?
در پناه لطف حق باید گریختکاو هزاران لطف بر ارواح ریخت
One must flee to the shelter of God's grace,
He who has poured thousands of graces upon souls,
تا پناهی یابی آن گه چون پناه !آب و آتش، مر ترا گردد سپاه
So that you may find shelter; then, once sheltered,
Water and fire become your army.
نوح و موسی را نه دریا یار شد ؟نه بر اعداشان به کین قهار شد ؟
Was the sea not the ally of Noah and Moses?
Was it not a wrathful avenger upon their enemies?
آتش ابراهیم را نی قلعه بود ؟تا برآورد از دل نمرود، دود ؟
Was not fire a fortress for Abraham,
So that it drew smoke from the heart of Nimrod?
کوه، یحیی را نه سوی خویش خواند ؟قاصدانش را به زخم سنگ راند ؟
Did the mountain not call Yaḥyā to itself,
And drive away those sent against him with blows of stone?
گفت "ای یحیی! بیا در من گریزتا پناهت باشم از شمشیر تیز"
It said: 'O Yaḥyā, come, flee into me,
So that I may shelter you from the sharp sword.'"
