(Then) God says (to the Devil), “He (thy dupe), indeed, is parted from felicity, and how shouldst thou be saved by these hypocrisies?”
گفت حق خود او جدا شد از بهی ** تو بدین تزویرها هم کی رهی
On the Day of Reckoning et faciens et pathicus infames sunt lapidationisque consortes. [On the Day of Reckoning (both) the active and passive (homosexuals) will be shamed-faced and partners in (being punished by) stoning.]
فاعل و مفعول در روز شمار ** روسیاهند و حریف سنگسار
Assuredly, by the decree and just dispensation (of God), (both) the waylaid and the waylayer are in the pit of farness (from God) and in an evil resting-place.3620
ره‌زده و ره‌زن یقین در حکم و داد ** در چه بعدند و در بس المهاد
(Both) the fool and the ghoul who deceived him must ever endure to be deprived of salvation and felicity.
گول را و غول را کو را فریفت ** از خلاص و فوز می‌باید شکیفت
Both the ass and he that caught the ass are (stuck) in the mud here: here (in this world) they are forgetful of (God) and there (in the next world) they are sunk (in woe)—
هم خر و خرگیر اینجا در گلند ** غافلند اینجا و آن‌جا آفلند
(All) except those who turn back from that (deception) and come (forth) from the autumn (of sensuality) into the springtide of (Divine) grace,
جز کسانی را که وا گردند از آن ** در بهار فضل آیند از خزان
And who repent, for God is ready to accept repentance, and cleave to His command, for a goodly Commander is He!
توبه آرند و خدا توبه‌پذیر ** امر او گیرند و او نعم الامیر
When, (moved) by sorrow, they raise a piteous cry, the highest Heaven trembles at the moaning of the sinners.3625
چون بر آرند از پشیمانی حنین ** عرش لرزد از انین المذنبین
It trembles even as a mother for her child: it takes them by the hand and draws them upward,
آن‌چنان لرزد که مادر بر ولد ** دستشان گیرد به بالا می‌کشد
Saying, “O ye whom God hath redeemed from delusion, behold the gardens of (Divine) grace and behold the forgiving Lord!
کای خداتان وا خریده از غرور ** نک ریاض فضل و نک رب غفور
