چون قیامت پیش حق صفها زده ** در حساب و در مناجات آمده

Whilst performing the prayer (they were) drawn up in ranks before God, as at the Resurrection, and engaged in self-examination and orisons,

ایستاده پیش یزدان اشک‌ریز ** بر مثال راست‌خیز رستخیز

Standing in God's presence and shedding tears, like one who rises erect on (the Day of) rising from the dead.

حق همی‌گوید چه آوردی مرا ** اندرین مهلت که دادم من ترا

(On that Day) God will say, “What hast thou produced for Me during this term of respite which I gave thee?

عمر خود را در چه پایان برده‌ای ** قوت و قوت در چه فانی کرده‌ای 2150

In what (work) hast thou brought thy life to its end? In what hast thou consumed thy food and strength?

گوهر دیده کجا فرسوده‌ای ** پنج حس را در کجا پالوده‌ای

Where hast thou dimmed the lustre of thine eye? Where hast thou dissipated thy five senses?

چشم و هوش و گوش و گوهرهای عرش ** خرج کردی چه خریدی تو ز فرش

Thou hast expended eyes and ears and intellect and the pure celestial substances: what hast thou purchased from the earth?

دست و پا دادمت چون بیل و کلند ** من ببخشیدم ز خود آن کی شدند

I gave thee hands and feet as spade and mattock (for tilling the soil of good works). When did those become (existent) of themselves?”

همچنین پیغامهای دردگین ** صد هزاران آید از حضرت چنین

Even so hundreds of thousands of such sorrowful messages come from the Lord.

در قیام این کفتها دارد رجوع ** وز خجالت شد دوتا او در رکوع 2155

At the time of standing (in prayer) these words return (from God to the worshipper), and from shame he is bent double in the genuflexion.

قوت استادن از خجلت نماند ** در رکوع از شرم تسبیحی بخواند

From shame the power of standing remains not, and from abashment he recites a litany of glorification while his knees are bowed.
