  • تا که عدل ما قدم بیرون نهد ** در جزا هر زشت را درخور دهد
  • To the end that Our justice may step forth and bestow in retribution what is appropriate to every evil-doer;
  • که آن شهی که می‌ندیدندیش فاش ** بود با ایشان نهان اندر معاش
  • For the King, whom they were not seeing openly, was (always) with them secretly in their lives.”
  • چون خرد با تست مشرف بر تنت ** گر چه زو قاصر بود این دیدنت
  • Inasmuch as the intellect is with thee, overseeing thy body, and though this perception of thine is unable to apprehend it,
  • نیست قاصر دیدن او ای فلان ** از سکون و جنبشت در امتحان
  • (Yet) its perception, O such and such, is not unable to apprehend thy motion and rest when it tries,
  • چه عجب گر خالق آن عقل نیز ** با تو باشد چون نه‌ای تو مستجیز 3680
  • What wonder if the Creator of that intellect too is with thee? How art thou not conceding (the truth of that)?
  • از خرد غافل شود بر بد تند ** بعد آن عقلش ملامت می‌کند
  • He (some one) pays no heed to his intellect and embarks on evil; afterwards his intellect rebukes him.
  • تو شدی غافل ز عقلت عقل نی ** کز حضورستش ملامت کردنی
  • You forgot your intellect, your intellect did not (forget you), since that act of rebuke is the result of its presence (attention).
  • گر نبودی حاضر و غافل بدی ** در ملامت کی ترا سیلی زدی
  • If it had not been present (attentive) and had been heedless, how should it have slapped you in rebuke?
  • ور ازو غافل نبودی نفس تو ** کی چنان کردی جنون و تفس تو
  • And if your carnal soul had not been inattentive to it, how should your madness and heat have acted thus?
  • پس تو و عقلت چو اصطرلاب بود ** زین بدانی قرب خورشید وجود 3685
  • Hence you and your intellect are like the astrolabe: by this means you may know the nearness of the Sun of existence.
