The evil disposition was not original (innate) in thy person; for from original evil comes naught but denial.
خوی بد در ذات تو اصلی نبود ** کز بد اصلی نیاید جز جحود
The borrowed (temporary) evil is such that he (in whom it appears) makes confession and desires to repent;
آن بد عاریتی باشد که او ** آرد اقرار و شود او توبه‌جو
Like Adam, whose lapse was temporary: of necessity he showed penitence at once.
هم‌چو آدم زلتش عاریه بود ** لاجرم اندر زمان توبه نمود
Since the sin of Iblís was original, for him there was no way to precious penitence.3415
چونک اصلی بود جرم آن بلیس ** ره نبودش جانب توبه‌ی نفیس
Go, for thou art delivered from thyself and from the evil disposition and from the (flaming) tongue of the Fire and from the teeth of the wild beasts (of Hell).
رو که رستی از خود و از خوی بد ** واز زبانه‌ی نار و از دندان دد
Go, for now thou hast grasped felicity, thou hast thrown thyself into everlasting fortune.
رو که اکنون دست در دولت زدی ** در فکندی خود به بخت سرمدی
Thou hast gained (that which is signified by the words) Enter in amongst My servants; thou hast annexed (the implication of) Enter into My Paradise.
ادخلی تو فی عبادی یافتی ** ادخلی فی جنتی در بافتی
Thou hast made a way for thyself (to enter) amongst His servants; thou hast gone into Eden by the secret way.
در عبادش راه کردی خویش را ** رفتی اندر خلد از راه خفا
‘Guide us,’ thou saidst, ‘in the straight path’: He took thy hand and led thee to the abode of bliss.3420
اهدنا گفتی صراط مستقیم ** دست تو بگرفت و بردت تا نعیم
Thou wast fire: thou hast become light, O noble one; thou wast an unripe grape: thou hast become a (ripe) grape and raisin.
نار بودی نور گشتی ای عزیز ** غوره بودی گشتی انگور و مویز
