And thy hand will become one of the Covenanters above whose hands is the Hand of Allah.740
دست تو از اهل آن بیعت شود ** که یدالله فوق ایدیهم بود
When thou hast put thy hand in the hand of the Pír, the Pír of wisdom who is knowing and eminent,
چون بدادی دست خود در دست پیر ** پیر حکمت که علیمست و خطیر
Who is the prophet of his own time, O disciple, so that the Light of the Prophet is manifested by him,
کو نبی وقت خویشست ای مرید ** تا ازو نور نبی آید پدید
By this means thou hast been present at Hudaybiya and hast been associated with the Companions who took the Covenant.
در حدیبیه شدی حاضر بدین ** وآن صحابهی بیعتی را همقرین
Therefore thou hast become one of the ten Friends to whom the glad tidings were given, and hast been made pure like sterling gold.
پس ز ده یار مبشر آمدی ** همچو زر دهدهی خالص شدی
(This is) to the end that communion may be made perfect; for a man is united with that one whom he has made his friend.745
تا معیت راست آید زانک مرد ** با کسی جفتست کو را دوست کرد
He is with him in this world and in that (other) world; and this is the (meaning of) the Hadíth of sweet-natured Ahmad (Mohammed),
این جهان و آن جهان با او بود ** وین حدیث احمد خوشخو بود
(Who) said, ‘A man is with him whom he loves’: the heart is not severed from its object of desire.
گفت المرء مع محبوبه ** لا یفک القلب من مطلوبه
Do not sit in any place where there is a trap and bait: O thou who regardest (others) as weak, go, consider (what becomes of) those who regard (others) as weak.
هر کجا دامست و دانه کم نشین ** رو زبونگیرا زبونگیران ببین
O thou who regardest the weak as weak (and at thy mercy), know this, (that) there is a hand above thy hand, O youth.
ای زبونگیر زبونان این بدان ** دست هم بالای دستست ای جوان
