How honour was paid to the description of Mustafá (Mohammed), on whom be peace, which was mentioned in the Gospel تعظیم نعت مصطفی علیه السلام که مذکور بود در انجیل
How honour was paid to the description
بود در انجیل نام مصطفی
آن سر پیغمبران بحر صفا
The name of Mustafá was in the Gospel—(Mustafá) the chief of the prophets, the sea of purity.
بود ذکر حلیهها و شکل او
بود ذکر غزو و صوم و اکل او
There was mention of his (external) characteristics and appearance; there was mention of his warring and fasting and eating.
طایفهی نصرانیان بهر ثواب
چون رسیدندی بدان نام و خطاب
A party among the Christians, for the sake of the Divine reward, whenever (in reading the Gospel) they came to that name and discourse,
بوسه دادندی بر آن نام شریف
رو نهادندی بر آن وصف لطیف
Would bestow kisses on that noble name and stoop their faces towards that beauteous description.
اندر این فتنه که گفتیم آن گروه
ایمن از فتنه بدند و از شکوه
In this tribulation of which we have told, that party were secure from tribulation and dread,
ایمن از شر امیران و وزیر
در پناه نام احمد مستجیر
Secure from the mischief of the amírs and the vizier, seeking refuge in the protection of the Name of Ahmad (Mohammed).
نسل ایشان نیز هم بسیار شد
نور احمد ناصر آمد یار شد
Their offspring also multiplied: the Light of Ahmad aided and befriended them.
و آن گروه دیگر از نصرانیان
نام احمد داشتندی مستهان
And the other party among the Christians (who) were holding the Name of Ahmad in contempt,
مستهان و خوار گشتند از فتن
از وزیر شوم رای شوم فن
They became contemptible and despised through dissensions caused by the evil counselling and evil-plotting vizier;
هم مخبط دینشان و حکمشان
از پی طومارهای کژ بیان
Moreover, their religion and their law became corrupted in consequence of the scrolls which set forth all perversely.
نام احمد این چنین یاری کند
تا که نورش چون نگهداری کند
The Name of Ahmad gives such help as this, so that (one may judge) how his Light keeps guard (over his followers).
نام احمد چون حصاری شد حصین
تا چه باشد ذات آن روح الامین
Since the Name of Ahmad became (to the Christians) an impregnable fortress, what then must be the Essence of that trusted Spirit?
