دفتر سوم - بخش ۴۰ - پاسخ فرعون موسی را علیه السلام / Book Three - Section 40 - Pharaoh's Answer to Moses, Peace Be Upon Him

Original content

گفت فرعونش ورق درحکم ماست
دفتر و دیوان حکم این دم مراست

مر مرا بخریده‌اند اهل جهان
از همه عاقلتری تو ای فلان

موسیا خود را خریدی هین برو
خویشتن کم بین به خود غره مشو

جمع آرم ساحران دهر را
تا که جهل تو نمایم شهر را

این نخواهد شد بروزی و دو روز
مهلتم ده تا چهل روز تموز

English translation

Pharaoh said to him: “The leaf/page is under our command; the register and bureau of rule at this moment are mine. The people of the world have bought/accepted me; are you wiser than everyone, O so-and-so? Moses, you have become your own buyer/admirer; go on, away! See yourself as less; do not be deluded by yourself. I will gather the sorcerers of the age, so that I may show the city your ignorance. This will not be done in a day or two; give me respite until forty days of Tammuz.”
