در مناجات آن بزرگ دین شبی
پیش حق میکرد آه و یاربی

گفت الهی چون شود حشر آشکار
بر لب دوزخ خوشی گیرم قرار

پس بدست آرم یکی خنجر ز نور
خلق را میرانم از دوزخ ز دور

تا ز دوزخ سر بسر ایمن شوند
در بهشت جاودان ساکن شوند

هاتفی آواز دادش آن زمان
گفت تو خاموش بنشین هان و هان

ورنه عیب تو بگویم آشکار
تا کنندت خلق عالم سنگسار

بعد ازآن داد آن بزرگ دین جواب
گفت هان و هان چه گفتم ناصواب

تو بدان می آریم تا این زمان
برگشایم بر سر خلقان زفان

از تو چندان بازگویم فضل وجود
کز همه عالم کست نکند سجود

پادشاها با دمی سرد آمدم
با دلی پرغصه و درد آمدم

چون نیم من هیچ و آگاهی ز من
ای همه تو پس چه میخواهی ز من

گرعذاب تو ز صد رویم بود
در خور یک تارهٔ مویم بود

لیک یک فضلت چو صد عالم فتاد
جرم جمله کم ز یک شبنم فتاد

آمد از من آنچه آید از لئیم
تو بکن نیز آنچه آید از کریم

English translation

One night, during the intimate prayers of that great master of the faith, He sighed and cried 'O Lord' before the Truth. He said: 'O Lord, when the Resurrection is made manifest, I will gladly take my place on the edge of Hell. Then, I will hold in my hand a dagger of light, And drive the people far away from Hell, So that they all may be completely safe from Hell, And dwell in the everlasting Paradise.' At that moment, a voice from the unseen called out to him, Saying: 'Keep silent! Beware, beware! Or else I shall reveal your faults openly, So that the people of the world stone you.' Thereafter, that great master of the faith replied, Saying: 'Beware, beware! What did I say that was incorrect? Do You provoke me that I should, until this moment, Unloose my tongue before all creation? I will speak so much of Your grace and bounty That not a single person in the entire world would prostrate to You!' O Sovereign, I have come with a cold sigh, I have come with a heart full of grief and pain. Since I am nothing, and You are fully aware of me, And You are everything, then what do You want from me? If Your punishment were to descend upon me from a hundred sides, It would be fitting for even a single strand of my hair. Yet, since a single grace of Yours is like a hundred worlds, The sins of all creation are less than a single drop of dew. What came from me is what comes from a base sinner; Do You also what is worthy of the Generous One.
