او میانجی شد میان دشمنان ** اتحادی شد میان پر زنان‏

He (Solomon) became an arbitrator between enemies: he became a (means of establishing) oneness between the creatures that fly with wings.

تو چو موری بهر دانه می‏دوی ** هین سلیمان جو چه می‏باشی غوی‏

Thou art running after grain, like an ant. Hark! seek for Solomon! Why art thou still astray?

دانه جو را دانه‏اش دامی شود ** و آن سلیمان جوی را هر دو بود 3705

To the seeker of grain his grain becomes a snare, but the seeker of Solomon may have both (Solomon and the grain).

مرغ جانها را در این آخر زمان ** نیستشان از همدگر یک دم امان‏

In these latter days the soul-birds have no security from each other for a moment;

هم سلیمان هست اندر دور ما ** کاو دهد صلح و نماند جور ما

(Yet) even in our epoch there is a Solomon who would give (us) peace and not suffer our injustice to continue.

قول إن من أمة را یاد گیر ** تا به إلا و خلا فیها نذیر

Call to mind (the text), There is no people down to (the words) but in the past a warner dwelt among them.

گفت خود خالی نبوده ست امتی ** از خلیفه‏ی حق و صاحب همتی‏

God said that verily there has never been a people devoid of a vicar of God and a man of spiritual power;

مرغ جانها را چنان یکدل کند ** کز صفاشان بی‏غش و بی‏غل کند 3710

And he makes the soul-birds so unanimous that, in respect of sincerity, he purges them of (all) guile and rancour.

مشفقان گردند همچون والده ** مسلمون را گفت نفس واحده‏

They become (as) kind as a mother: he (Mohammed) said of the Moslems, “(They are as) one soul.”

نفس واحد از رسول حق شدند ** ور نه هر یک دشمن مطلق بدند

(’Twas) through the Messenger of Allah they became one soul; else, they were absolute enemies, every one (to the other).

برخاستن مخالفت و عداوت از میان انصار به برکات رسول صلی الله علیه و آله

How dissension and enmity amongst the Ansár were removed by the blessings of the Prophet—may God bless and save him!
