دفتر سوم - بخش ۱۲۷ - مثلها زدن قوم نوح باستهزا در زمان کشتی ساختن / Book Three - Section 127 - Noah's People Making Parables in Mockery at the Time of Building the Ship

Original content

نوح اندر بادیه کشتی بساخت
صد مثل گو از پی تسخیر بتاخت

در بیابانی که چاه آب نیست
می کند کشتی چه نادان و ابلهیست

آن یکی می گفت ای کشتی بتاز
و آن یکی می گفت پرش هم بساز

او همی گفت این به فرمان خداست
این بچربکها نخواهد گشت کاست

English translation

Noah built a ship in the wilderness, A hundred mockers rushed after him for ridicule. In a desert where there is no well of water, He builds a ship — what ignorance, what foolishness! One would say: "O ship, now sail away!" And another would say: "Make wings for it too!" He kept saying: "This is by God's command; This will not be diminished by these jests."
