کین تانی پرتو رحمان بود ** وان شتاب از هزه‌ی شیطان بود
For this deliberation is the ray of the Merciful (God), while that haste is from the impulse of the Devil,
زانک شیطانش بترساند ز فقر ** بارگیر صبر را بکشد به عقر 60
Because the Devil frightens him (the greedy man) away from poverty and kills the beast of burden, patience, by stabbing.
از نبی بشنو که شیطان در وعید ** می‌کند تهدیدت از فقر شدید
Hear from the Qur’án that the Devil in menace is threatening thee with hard poverty,
تا خوری زشت و بری زشت و شتاب ** نی مروت نی‌تانی نی ثواب
That in haste thou mayst eat foul things and take foul things, (having in thee) no generosity, no deliberation, no merit acquired by good works.
لاجرم کافر خورد در هفت بطن ** دین و دل باریک و لاغر زفت بطن
Necessarily (therefore) the infidel takes his food in seven bowels: his religion and spirit are thin and lean, his belly fat.
در سبب ورود این حدیث مصطفی صلوات الله علیه که الکافر یاکل فی سبعة امعاء و المومن یاکل فی معا واحد
Concerning the occasion of the coming of the Tradition of Mustafá (Mohammed), the blessings of God be upon him, that the infidel takes his food in seven bowels, while the true believer takes his food in one bowel.
کافران مهمان پیغامبر شدند ** وقت شام ایشان به مسجد آمدند
The infidels became the guests of the Prophet: they came to the mosque at eventide,
که آمدیم ای شاه ما اینجا قنق ** ای تو مهمان‌دار سکان افق 65
Saying, “We have come here as visitors seeking hospitality, O King, O thou who art the entertainer of (all) the inhabitants of the world.
بی‌نواییم و رسیده ما ز دور ** هین بیفشان بر سر ما فضل و نور
We are destitute and have arrived from afar: hark, shed thy grace and light upon us!”
گفت ای یاران من قسمت کنید ** که شما پر از من و خوی منید
He said (to his Companions), “O my friends, divide (these guests amongst you), for ye are filled with me and with my nature.”
پر بود اجسام هر لشکر ز شاه ** زان زنندی تیغ بر اعدای جاه
The bodies of every army are filled with the King; hence they would draw the sword against (his) Majesty's enemies.
