You have neglected to give thanks for the Religion because you got it for nothing as an inheritance from your father.
سر ز شکر دین از آن بر تافتی ** کز پدر میراث مفتاش یافتی
How should a man who inherits know the value of wealth? A Rustam tore his soul (suffered agonies in acquiring it), (whereas) Zál got it cost-free.
مرد میراثی چه داند قدر مال ** رستمی جان کند و مجان یافت زال
“When I cause (any one) to weep, My mercy is aroused: that wailer drinks of (enjoys) My bounty.
چون بگریانم بجوشد رحمتم ** آن خروشنده بنوشد نعمتم
If I do not wish to give, (then) indeed I do not show him (the desired gift), (but) when I have closed (contracted) his heart (with grief), I open (expand) it (with joy).
گر نخواهم داد خود ننمایمش ** چونش کردم بسته دل بگشایمش
My mercy is dependent on that goodly weeping: when he weeps, waves rise from the sea of (My) mercy.”375
رحمتم موقوف آن خوش گریههاست ** چون گریست از بحر رحمت موج خاست
How by Divine inspiration Shaykh Ahmad son of Khizrúya bought halwá (sweetmeat) for his creditors.
حلوا خریدن شیخ احمد خضرویه قدس الله سره العزیز جهت غریمان به الهام حق
There was a Shaykh who was continually in debt because of the generosity which that illustrious one had (in his nature).
بود شیخی دایما او وامدار ** از جوانمردی که بود آن نامدار
He used to make myriads of debts (by borrowing) from the great, and spend (all the money) upon the poor (dervishes) of the world.
ده هزاران وام کردی از مهان ** خرج کردی بر فقیران جهان
He had also built a monastery (for Súfís) by (running into) debt; he had devoted life and wealth and monastery (to God).
هم به وام او خانقاهی ساخته ** جان و مال و خانقه درباخته
God was paying his debts from every quarter: God made flour out of sand for the Friend's (Abraham's) sake.
وام او را حق ز هر جا میگزارد ** کرد حق بهر خلیل از ریگ آرد
The prophet said that two angels are (always) praying here in the markets, (saying),380
گفت پیغمبر که در بازارها ** دو فرشته میکنند ایدر دعا
