Section 13 - Tale: Someone said Hajjaj was a bloodthirsty man.
بخش ۱۳ - حکایت: کسی گفت حجاج خونخوارهای است
Someone said that Hajjaj is a bloodthirsty man
His heart is like a piece of black stone
کسی گفت حجاج خونخوارهای است
دلش همچو سنگ سیه پارهای است
He does not fear the sighs and cries of the people
O God, take from him what belongs to the people
نترسد همی ز آه و فریاد خلق
خدایا تو بستان از او داد خلق
A worldly-wise old man was born long ago
He gave a piece of advice to a young man
جهاندیدهای پیر دیرینه زاد
جوان را یکی پند پیرانه داد
The oppressed and poor take from him
And others seek revenge from him
کز او داد مظلوم مسکین او
بخواهند و از دیگران کین او
Let go of him and his fate
For fate will bring him low under his own hand
تو دست از وی و روزگارش بدار
که خود زیر دستش کند روزگار
I will not benefit from his oppression
Nor will I find gossip pleasing from you
نه بیداد از او بهرهمند آیدم
نه نیز از تو غیبت پسند آیدم
The sinner’s crime took him to hell
He filled the cup and the black devils came
به دوزخ برد مدبری را گناه
که پیمانه پر کرد و دیوان سیاه
Others run to gossip
Let it not be that he alone ends up in hell
دگر کس به غیبت پیش میدود
مبادا که تنها به دوزخ رود
