متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

بی نهایت آمد این خوش سرگذشتچون غریب از گور خواجه باز گشت
This pleasant story became endless
When the stranger returned from the master's grave.
پای مردش سوی خانهٔ خویش بردمهر صد دینار را فا او سپرد
His mediator took him to his own house
And handed over to him the sealed bag of a hundred dinars.
لوتش آورد و حکایت هاش گفتکز امید اندر دلش صد گل شکفت
He brought him food and told him stories
So that a hundred flowers of hope bloomed in his heart.
آنچ بعد العسر یسر او دیده بودبا غریب از قصهٔ آن لب گشود
That 'ease after hardship' which he had seen,
He opened his lips to tell the stranger of its story.
نیم شب بگذشت و افسانه کنانخوابشان انداخت تا مرعای جان
Midnight passed, and while telling tales,
Sleep cast them into the pasture of the soul.
دید پامرد آن همایون خواجه رااندر آن شب خواب بر صدر سرا
The mediator saw that auspicious master,
In a dream that night at the head of the house.
خواجه گفت ای پای مرد با نمکآنچ گفتی من شنیدم یک به یک
The master said, 'O charming mediator,
What you said, I heard one by one.
لیک پاسخ دادنم فرمان نبودبی اشارت لب نیارستم گشود
But there was no command for me to answer;
Without a sign, I could not open my lips.
ما چو واقف گشته ایم از چون و چندمهر با لب های ما بنهاده اند
Since we have become aware of the 'how' and 'how much',
A seal has been placed upon our lips.
تا نگردد رازهای غیب فاشتا نگردد منهدم عیش و معاش
So that the secrets of the unseen are not revealed,
So that life and livelihood are not destroyed.
تا ندرد پردهٔ غفلت تمامتا نماند دیگ محنت نیم خام
So that the veil of heedlessness is not completely torn,
So that the pot of trial does not remain half-raw.
ما همه گوشیم کر شد نقش گوشما همه نطقیم لیکن لب خموش
We are all ears, though the form of the ear has become deaf;
We are all speech, but our lips are silent.
هر چه ما دادیم دیدیم این زماناین جهان پرده ست و عینست آن جهان
Whatever we gave, we have seen at this time;
This world is a veil, and that world is the reality.
روز کشتن روز پنهان کردنستتخم در خاکی پریشان کردنست
The day of sowing is the day of hiding,
It is scattering seeds in the soil.
وقت بدرودن گه منجل زدنروز پاداش آمد و پیدا شدن
The time of reaping is the time of using the sickle;
The day of reward has come, and becoming manifest.'
