بخش ۱۸ - الحكایة و التمثیل / Section 18 - The Tale and the Parable

متن و ترجمه / Text and Translation

نیک مردی بود از زن پای بستپیش رکن الدین اکافی نشست
A good man was helplessly devoted to his wife,
He sat before Rukn al-Din Akafi.
پس ز دست زن بسی بگریست زارگفت بی او یکدمم نبود قرار
Then he wept bitterly because of his wife,
He said, 'Without her, I have no peace for a moment.
نه طلاقش میتوانم داد مننه توانم گشت از او آزاد من
I can neither divorce her,
Nor can I become free from her,
زانکه جانم زنده از دیدار اوسترونقم از نازش بسیار اوست
Because my soul is alive by seeing her,
My flourishing is from her abundant coquetry.
لیک ترک دین و سنت میکندزانکه بر بوبکر لعنت میکند
But she abandons religion and tradition,
Because she curses Abu Bakr.
گرچه میرنجانمش هر وقت سختمینگوید ترک این آن شور بخت
Even though I torment her severely all the time,
That wretched one does not abandon this.
نه ازو یک روز بتوانم بریدنه ازو این قول بتوانم شنید
I can neither cut ties with her for a day,
Nor can I bear to hear these words from her.
میسزد گردل ازین پر خون کنمدر میان این دو مشکل چون کنم
It is fitting if I make my heart full of blood from this,
What should I do between these two difficulties?'
خواجه گفت ای مرد اگر رنجانیشهر زمان سرگشته تر گردانیش
The Master said, 'O man, if you torment her,
You will make her more bewildered every moment.
گر بگوئی از سر لطفیش رازاو دگر نکند زفان هرگز دراز
If you kindly tell her the secret,
She will never again lengthen her tongue.
اعتقادی کژ درو بنشانده اندنقلهای کژ برو برخوانده اند
A crooked belief has been planted in her,
Crooked tales have been read to her.
گفته اند او را که بوبکر از مجازکرد ظلم و حق ز حق میداشت باز
They have told her that Abu Bakr through pretense,
Committed oppression and withheld the right from the rightful.
باز کرد آل پیمبر را ز کارکرد بر باطل خلافت اختیار
He dismissed the family of the Prophet from affairs,
He chose the caliphate based on falsehood.
ملک بودش آرزو بگشاد دستنی بحق بر جای پیغمبر نشست
He desired the kingdom and reached out his hand,
He did not sit in the Prophet's place rightfully.
او چنین بوبکر دانستست راستبر چنین بوبکر بس لعنت رواست
She has known Abu Bakr to be exactly like this,
Upon such an Abu Bakr, a curse is quite permissible!
لعنتی کو کرد ما هم میکنیمما هم این لعنت دمادم میکنیم
The curse she made, we also make,
We also make this curse continually.
گر چنین جائی ابوبکری بودآن نه بوبکری که بومکری بود
If there were an Abu Bakr in such a position,
He would not be Abu Bakr, but Abu Makr (father of deceit).
گر چنین بوبکر را دشمن شویگر بدیده تیرهٔ روشن شوی
If you become an enemy to such an Abu Bakr,
You would become clear-sighted instead of dark-eyed.
لیک چون بوبکر صدیق آمدستجان او دریای تحقیق آمدست
But since Abu Bakr is Siddiq (the Truthful),
His soul is an ocean of realization.
صبح صادق از دم جان سوز اوستآفتاب از سایه هر روز اوست
The true dawn is from his soul-burning breath,
The sun is from his shadow every day.
صدق او سر دفتر هفت آسمانستقدس او سر جمله هر دو جهانست
His truthfulness is the preamble of the seven heavens,
His holiness is the secret of both worlds.
جان پاکش را دو عالم هیچ نیستذرهٔ در جانش میل و پیچ نیست
Both worlds are nothing to his pure soul,
There is not an atom of inclination or crookedness in his soul.
هست بوبکر این چنین نه آن چناندوستان را می مپرس از دشمنان
Abu Bakr is like this, not like that,
Do not ask about friends from enemies!
گر بدی گفتند مشتی بی فروغدر حق اوآن دروغست آن دروغ
If a handful of unenlightened people spoke ill,
Regarding him, that is a lie, that is a lie!
هست بوبکر آنکه بر سنت رودگر چنین نبود بر او لعنت رود
Abu Bakr is one who walks upon the Sunnah,
If it were not so, a curse would be upon him.
گر چنین گوئی زنت آید براهپس زفان در بند آید از گناه
If you speak like this, your wife will come to the right path,
Then her tongue will be restrained from sin.'
مرد شد شادان وبا زن گفت رازتوبه کرد آن زن وزان ره گشت باز
The man became joyous and told his wife the secret,
That woman repented and turned back from that path.
از صحابه سی هزار و سه هزاراز میان جانش کردند اختیار
Thirty-three thousand of the companions,
From the core of their souls, chose him.
او کجا در بندآب و جاه بودکاب و جاه او همه الله بود
How could he be bound to wealth and position?
For all his wealth and position was Allah.
آنکه از عرش و فلک فارغ بودشک نباشد کز فدک فارغ بود
He who was free from the throne and the heavens,
There is no doubt that he was free from Fadak.
