وانگردد از ره آن تیر ای پسر ** بند باید کرد سیلی را ز سر
O son, that arrow does not turn back on its way: you must dam a torrent at the source.
چون گذشت از سر جهانی را گرفت ** گر جهان ویران کند نبود شگفت1660
When it left the source behind, it swept over a world (of country): if it lays waste the world, ’tis no wonder.
فعل را در غیب اثرها زادنی است ** و آن موالیدش به حکم خلق نیست
There is an unseen bringing forth of effects to (our) action, and the results born of it are not in the control of (human) creatures:
بی‌‌شریکی جمله مخلوق خداست ** آن موالید ار چه نسبتشان به ماست
Those results are all created by God without any partner, though they are imputed to us.
زید پرانید تیری سوی عمر ** عمر را بگرفت تیرش همچو نمر
Zayd let fly an arrow in the direction of ‘Amr: his arrow gripped ‘Amr like a leopard.
مدت سالی همی‌‌زایید درد ** دردها را آفریند حق نه مرد
During a long time, a (whole) year, it was producing pain: pains are created by God, not by man.
زید رامی آن دم ار مرد از وجل ** دردها می‌‌زاید آن جا تا اجل1665
If Zayd who shot (the arrow) died of fright at the moment (when ‘Amr was wounded), (nevertheless) pains are continually being produced there (in ‘Amr's body) until (‘Amr's) death.
ز آن موالید وجع چون مرد او ** زید را ز اول سبب قتال گو
Inasmuch as he (‘Amr) died from the results of the hurt (inflicted on him), for this cause call Zayd (his) murderer on acount of (Zayd's having been) the original cause (of his death).
آن وجعها را بدو منسوب دار ** گر چه هست آن جمله صنع کردگار
Impute those pains to him, though all of them are the work of the Creator.
همچنین کشت و دم و دام و جماع ** آن موالید است حق را مستطاع
So with sowing and breathing (speaking) and (laying) snares and sexual intercourse: the results of those (actions) are amenable to (determined by the will of) God.
