The Descent of the Messiah — Page 144
THE DESCENT OF THE MESSIAH پس اگر قانعی به مظنونی تو نه عاقل که سخت مجنونی Yet if you are content with doubts, then you are not intelligent but are extremely foolish. دل تپد از برای رفع حجاب جز دلی کان شدست همچو کلاب The heart is always restless to remove the veils, except for the heart that has become like that of a beast. افلا تبصرون گفت خدا خیز در نفس جو تعطشها Has not God commanded us to reflect? Arise, then, and search for your inner thirst. رو بجو یار را چو مجنونان همت دون مدار چون دونان Do not be cowardly like the lowly ones; go and search for God like those infatuated. هر که جویای اوست یافته است تافت آن رو که سر نتافته است Anyone who sought him found him; the face that did not turn away from him became bright. آفرین خدا بر آن مردی که برین در شدست چون گردی God saluted the valiant one who, like dust, settled at His thresh- old. از پی وصل آن مهیمن پاک اوفتاده سر نیاز به خاک He fell and humbly placed his head in the dust to find the Holy 144 Protector.
