Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya Parts I & II — Page 21
PART ONE آب ہم بنده هست زیں کہ مدام بند در سروی است نے خود کام Water is a slave too, to have a cooling effect, It cannot do otherwise on its own. چنیں سوزشی فگندہ او آتشے تیز نیز بنده او در The blazing fire is also His slave, He is the One who causes it to burn with such intensity. گر برآری به پیش او فریاد گرمیش کم نہ گردد اے استاد به O wise man! No matter how you beg or beseech the fire, You cannot abate its heat. پائے اشجار در زمیں بندست سخت در پا سلاسل افگندست The tree trunks are firmly rooted in the soil, Their feet firmly secured by shackles. ایں ہمہ بستگان آن یک ذات بر وجودش دلائل و آیات All these phenomena point to the One, And serve as proofs and signs of His existence. اے خداوند خلق و عالمیان خلق و عالم از قدرت حیران O Lord of all creation and all the worlds! The whole universe is wonderstruck at Your power. چه عجیب ست کار و صنعت تو چه مهیب ست شان و شوکت تو How marvellous is Your Might and Majesty! How strange are Your works and Your creation! 21
