You have supposed (what is really) death to be life: you have sown your seed in a barren soil.
مرگ را تو زندگی پنداشتی ** تخم را در شوره خاکی کاشتی
The false (discursive) reason, indeed, sees the reverse (of the truth): it sees life as death, O man of weak judgement.”
عقل کاذب هست خود معکوس‌بین ** زندگی را مرگ بیند ای غبین
Do Thou, O God, show (unto us) everything as it really is in this house of illusion.1765
ای خدا بنمای تو هر چیز را ** آنچنان که هست در خدعه‌سرا
None that has died is filled with grief on account of death; his grief is caused by having too little provision (for the life hereafter);
هیچ مرده نیست پر حسرت ز مرگ ** حسرتش آنست کش کم بود برگ
Otherwise (he would not grieve, for) he has come from a dungeon into the open country amidst fortune and pleasure and delight;
ورنه از چاهی به صحرا اوفتاد ** در میان دولت و عیش و گشاد
From this place of mourning and (this) narrow vale (of tribulation) he has been transported to the spacious plain.
زین مقام ماتم و ننگین مناخ ** نقل افتادش به صحرای فراخ
(’Tis) a seat of truth, not a palace of falsehood; a choice wine, not an intoxication with buttermilk.
مقعد صدقی نه ایوان دروغ ** باده‌ی خاصی نه مستیی ز دوغ
(’Tis) the seat of truth, and (there) God is beside him: he is delivered from this water and earth of the fire-temple.1770
مقعد صدق و جلیسش حق شده ** رسته زین آب و گل آتشکده
And if you have not (yet) led the illuminative life, one or two moments (still) remain: die (to self) like a man!
ور نکردی زندگانی منیر ** یک دو دم ماندست مردانه بمیر
Concerning what may be hoped for from the mercy of God most High, who bestows His favours before they have been deserved— and He it is who sends down the rain after they have despaired. And many an estrangement produces intimacy (as its result), and there is many a blessed sin, and many a happiness that comes in a case where penalties are expected, in order that it may be known that God changes their evil deeds to good.
فیما یرجی من رحمة الله تعالی معطی النعم قبل استحقاقها و هو الذی ینزل الغیث من بعد ما قنطوا و رب بعد یورث قربا و رب معصیة میمونة و رب سعادة تاتی من حیث یرجی النقم لیعلم ان الله یبدل سیاتهم حسنات
In the Traditions (of the Prophet) it is related that on the Day of Resurrection every single body will be commanded to arise.
در حدیث آمد که روز رستخیز ** امر آید هر یکی تن را که خیز
