Story on the fruits of well-doing حکایت در معنی ثمرات نکوکاری در آخرت
Bustan Saadi بوستان سعدی
| A man saw the Great Judgment Plain in a dream The Earth’s face like sun-heated copper did seem. The cries of mankind rose to Heav’n’s lofty seat; Their brains, too, were boiling, because of the heat. | کسی دید صحرای محشر به خواب مس تفته روی زمین ز آفتاب همی برفلک شد ز مردم خروش دماغ از تبش میبرآمد به جوش |
| A man, midst the throng, in the shade was at rest ; A Paradise ornament showed on his breast. “Oh assembly adorner! ” the dreaming man said, “In this mighty assembly, who granted you aid ?” | یکی شخص از این جمله در سایه‌ای به گردن بر از خلد پیرایه‌ای بپرسید کای مجلس آرای مرد که بود اندر این مجلست پایمرد؟ |
| He answered, ” A vine at my house door I kept ; A good man came under its shadow and slept. That pure, upright saint, in this time of despair, Asked my sins from the just-dealing God, in this prayer: | رزی داشتم بر در خانه، گفت به سایه درش نیکمردی بخفت در آن وقت نومیدی آن مرد راست گناهم ز دادار داور بخواست |
| Deliver, oh God, this poor slave from his woes ! For once by his means I enjoyed sweet repose.'” I was glad when I found out the mystery’s cause, And told the good news to the lord of Shiraz ; | که یارب بر این بنده بخشایشی کز او دیده‌ام وقتی آسایشی چه گفتم چو حل کردم این راز را؟ بشارت خداوند شیراز را |
| For the world, in the shade of his eminent mind, Secure at his table of bounty, you’ll find. A liberal man is a fruit-bearing tree, And if you neglect it, Hell’s firewood you’ll be. | که جمهور در سایه همتش مقیمند و بر سفره نعمتش درختی است مرد کرم، باردار وز او بگذری هیزم کوهسار |
| If they lay the sharp axe to the wither’d tree’s root, When will they attack the good tree, bearing fruit ? Oh tree, full of merit, long, long may you live ! For you freely bear fruit and a shade you can give. | حطب را اگر تیشه بر پی زنند درخت برومند را کی زنند؟ بسی پای دار، ای درخت هنر که هم میوه داری و هم سایه‌ور |
