I will become non-existent in thy existence, because I am thy lover: love makes blind and deaf.”2645
در وجود تو شوم من منعدم ** چون محبم حب یعمی و یصم
The wife said, “Dost thou intend to treat me with kindness, or art thou (bent on) discovering my secret by trickery?”
گفت زن آهنگ برم میکنی ** یا به حیلت کشف سرم میکنی
He said, “(No), by God who knows the thought most deeply hid, who out of dust created Adam pure (chosen above all),
گفت و الله عالم السر الخفی ** کافرید از خاک آدم را صفی
Who, in the body three cubits long which He gave him, displayed everything that was contained in the tablets (of destiny) and the (world of) spirits.
در سه گز قالب که دادش وا نمود ** هر چه در الواح و در ارواح بود
Through his He (God) taught him (Adam) the Names (through his God-given knowledge) he at the very first gave instruction (to the angels) concerning everything that shall come to pass unto everlasting,
تا ابد هر چه بود او پیش پیش ** درس کرد از علم الاسماء خویش
So that the angels became beside themselves (in amazement) at his teaching, and gained from his glorification (of God) a holiness other (than they possessed before).2650
تا ملک بیخود شد از تدریس او ** قدس دیگر یافت از تقدیس او
The revelation that appeared to them from Adam was not (contained) in the amplitude of their heavens.
آن گشادیشان کز آدم رو نمود ** در گشاد آسمانهاشان نبود
In comparison with the spaciousness of the range of that pure spirit (Adam), the expanse of the seven heavens became narrow.
در فراخی عرصهی آن پاک جان ** تنگ آمد عرصهی هفت آسمان
The Prophet said that God has said, ‘I am not contained at all in “high” and “low” (spatial dimensions);
گفت پیغمبر که حق فرموده است ** من نگنجم هیچ در بالا و پست
I am not contained in earth or heaven or even in the empyrean—know this for certain, O noble one;
در زمین و آسمان و عرش نیز ** من نگنجم این یقین دان ای عزیز
