The Descent of the Messiah — Page 104

THE DESCENT OF THE MESSIAH دست غیبی کشیده دامن دل برکشیده دو دست یار ز گل A hand from the unseen pulls at his heart's strings, and the hands of his friend pull him out of the mud. پاک دل پاک جان و پاک ضمیر دور تر از مکائد و تزویر He becomes pure of heart, pure of spirit, and pure of thought, far from deceit and falsehood. آنچنان عشق تیز مرکب راند که ازان مشت خاک هیچ نماند Love makes the horse run so fast that nothing remains of the fistful of dust. کشته ی دلبر و دلآرامی رسته ی کسر ز ننگ و از نامی He is completely devoted to the beloved and indifferent to honour and fame. پر ز عشق و تهی ز هر آزی قصه کوتاه کرد آوازی Filled with love and empty of greed, he is won over by a single آن ندای یقین که گوش شنید voice. کرد کار و ز غیر حق ببرید That voice of conviction that fell on his ears accomplished a great task and cut him off from everything other than Allah. رفته بیرون از حلقه ی اغیار دل بریده از غیر آن دلدار He broke out of the circle of others and became detached from everything other than Allah. 104
