196 کس به چشم یار صدّیقی نشد تا به چشم غیر زندیقی نشد Nobody comes to be deemed truthful in the eyes of the Beloved, Until he is considered an infidel in the sight of those who are apart from Him. لعین و دجال و گفتند کافرم کمین در لئیمی هر قتلم بهر They call me k a fir, dajj a l, and accursed, And every ignoble one hid in ambush to kill me. بنگر این بازی کنان را، چون جهند از حسد بر جان خود بازی کنند How they jump about watching these [circus or trick] performers, But these envious ones only put their own lives at risk. قرار دادن کافری را مومنی هوشیار نزد بازیست جان کار To call a believer a k a fir [disbeliever] Is a very dangerous matter in the sight of an intelligent person. زانکه تکفیری که از ناحق بود واپس آید بر سر اهلش فتد Because to brand someone a disbeliever unjustly Merely backfires upon the person spewing this himself. ای کو غرق در کفر نهان سفله دیگران کفر بهر نالد هرزه That fool who is himself immersed in concealed kufr, Simply stirs the absurd uproar upon the kufr of others. گر خبر زان کفر باطن داشتی انگاشتی بدتری را خویشتن Had he knowledge of his own [hidden] kufr, He would have thought the worst about himself.
