HADRAT MIRZA GHULAM AHMADAS ای که دیوانه ای پی اموال وه که در کار دین چنین اهمال Oh, you who are crazy for wealth; how much tolerance you have in matters of religion! وقت عیش است و موسم شادی تو چه در سوگ و ماتم افتادی This is the time of joy and happiness; why are you buried in grief and sorrow? از خدایت رسید رهبر دین مرد دین باش و چون زنان منشین The guide of religion has reached you from Allah; stand up like a man now and do not show weakness like a woman. خیز و از بهر یار کاری کن یک نظر سوی این بهاری کن Rise and work for the Friend, and cast a look at this garden and this season of spring. ورنه مرگ است اژدهای دمان زود میگیردت مشو نادان Otherwise, death is a terrible monster that will soon overtake آن صبا نگهتی ز یار آورد you; do not be a fool. در دمی موسم بهار آورد However, you have chosen autumn for yourself, and I don't know what good you see in it. تو خزان بهر خود پسندیدی من ندانم چه در خزان دیدی The fragrant morning breeze has brought such a fragrance from the Friend that it is as if, all of a sudden, spring has arrived. 135
