بخش ۴۳ - سرعت نمودن غلام مقبول به انقیاد امر پادشاه و تبری کردن او از حول و قوت خویش / Section 43 - The Favored Slave Hastens to Obey the King's Command and Absolves Himself of His Own Power and Strength

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

آن یکی چست از زمین برجستتیغ جست و میان به کین در بست
That one nimbly leaped up from the ground,
Sought a sword and girded his waist for battle.
گفت شاها غلام فرمانمهر چه حکم تو بنده آنم
He said, 'O King, I am a slave to your command,
Whatever your decree, I am its servant.
گر کنم طاعت و اطاعت توباشد آن هم به استطاعت تو
If I offer obedience and submission to you,
That too is by the capacity You grant me.
من خود اندر میانه هیچ نیمجز دروغ و بهانه هیچ نیم
I myself am nothing in the middle of all this,
I am nothing but a lie and an excuse.
آلتی ام به دست کارگزارنیست در دست من کفایت کار
I am an instrument in the hand of the Agent,
The sufficiency of the work is not in my hands.
کار در دست کار ساز بودنسبت آن به من مجاز بود
The work is in the hand of the Maker of works,
Its attribution to me is merely metaphorical.
کار خود کن که کارساز توییمعنی آرای این مجاز تویی
Do Your own work, for You are the True Maker,
You are the adornment of meaning for this metaphor.
گر توانم دهی توانم کردور دهانم شوی توانم خورد
If You give me ability, I am able to act;
And if You become my mouth, I can consume.
فعلم از دست قدرتت هست استدست من آستین آن دست است
My action derives its existence from the hand of Your power,
My hand is merely the sleeve for that Hand.
دست جنبد ز آستین آریلیک ناید ز آستین کاری
The hand moves from within the sleeve, yes,
But no work can be done by the sleeve itself.
پیش آن کس که راست بین باشدفعل و جنبش نه ز آستین باشد
Before the one who possesses true vision,
The action and movement do not originate from the sleeve.
دست تا ز آستین نه جنبان استجنبش آستین چه امکان است
Unless the hand is moving within the sleeve,
How is the movement of the sleeve possible?
تا تو برنامدی به صورت مننشد اثبات فعل و قدرت من
Until You manifested through my form,
The proof of my action and power was not established.
عین ممکن چو پیش چشم شهودنیست فی حد ذاته موجود
Since the essence of the contingent being, before the eye of witnessing,
Is not existent in and of itself.
فعلش از وی وجود چون یابدنیست از نیست بود چون یابد
How can its action gain existence from it?
How can non-existence gain being from non-existence?
این مثل یاد کن که صاحب هشثبت العرش گفت ثم انقش
Remember this proverb, as the possessor of intelligence
Said: Establish the foundation first, then engrave it.'
