ای خرد بر کش تو پر و بالها ** سوره بر خوان زلزلت زلزالها2420
O intellect, unfold thy wings and pinions: read the Súra (which begins with the words), (when the earth) shall be caused to quake with a mighty quaking.
در قیامت این زمین بر نیک و بد ** کی ز نادیده گواهیها دهد
At the Resurrection how should this earth give testimonies concerning good and evil without having seen?
که تحدث حالها و اخبارها ** تظهر الارض لنا اسرارها
For she will relate her experiences and informations: the earth will reveal her secrets to us.
این فرستادن مرا پیش تو میر ** هست برهانی که بد مرسل خبیر
“This sending of me (as a prophet) to thee, O prince, is a clear evidence that the Sender was aware
کین چنین دارو چنین ناسور را ** هست درخور از پی میسور را
That such a medicine as this is suitable to such a desperate malady, for the purpose of success (in curing it).
واقعاتی دیده بودی پیش ازین ** که خدا خواهد مرا کردن گزین2425
Heretofore thou hadst seen visions (warning thee) that God would choose me out (to go to thee),
من عصا و نور بگرفته به دست ** شاخ گستاخ ترا خواهم شکست
(And that) I, having taken the rod and the Light in my hand, would break thy insolent horn.
واقعات سهمگین از بهر این ** گونه گونه می‌نمودت رب دین
On this account the Lord of the Judgement was showing unto thee terrible visions of diverse sorts,
در خور سر بد و طغیان تو ** تا بدانی کوست درخوردان تو
Suitable to thy evil conscience and thy inordinate disobedience, that thou might’st know that He knows what is proper for thee;
تا بدانی کو حکیمست و خبیر ** مصلح امراض درمان‌ناپذیر
That thou might’st know that He is wise and omniscient and the healer of irremediable maladies.
