《因為你靈魂的緣故》/魯米

我又一次狂怒，因你靈魂的緣故

我陷入這種狀態，你把一切聯繫在一起，

我卻把這一切割斷，因為你靈魂的緣故。

我是天空、明月和你光芒點亮的燭火。

我是一切理智、一切愛、一切靈魂，

因為你靈魂的緣故。

我高興是因為你的作為，我宿醉是因為你的荊棘，

不論你的臉轉向哪一邊，我都會跟著轉過去，

因為你靈魂的緣故。

我會胡言亂語，在這種狀況下，請不要介意我說錯話，

因為在這樣的時刻，我連酒杯和酒都分不清，

因為你靈魂的緣故。

我就是那個瘋子，把分離的事物聯繫在一起。

我就是一個瘋子，看到事物間聯繫的聰明人。

因為你靈魂的緣故。

除了愛，我心中就沒有別的，

雜念一出現我就把它們趕跑，

因為你靈魂的緣故。

回來吧，遠走他鄉的人，因為離開的事物都回來了。

事實上，既不是我的靈魂指引你，也不是你的靈魂指引我。

心生懷疑者，不要拋下心中的懷疑，因為我要背誦你命運的秘密，

因為你靈魂的緣故。

出於對大不里士的薩姆士的愛，我半夜醒來，

像一粒飄忽的微塵，心煩意亂，

因為你靈魂的緣故。

肖林振/譯

Confused and distraught

Again I am raging, I am in such a state by your soul that every

bond you bind, I break, by your soul.

I am like heaven, like the moon, like a candle by your glow; I am all

reason, all love, all soul, by your soul.

My joy is of your doing, my hangover of your thorn; whatever

side you turn your face, I turn mine, by your soul.

I spoke in error; it is not surprising to speak in error in this

state, for this moment I cannot tell cup from wine, by your soul.

I am that madman in bonds who binds the "divs"; I, the madman,

am a Solomon with the "divs", by your soul.

Whatever form other than love raises up its head from my

heart, forthwith I drive it out of the court of my heart, by your soul.

Come, you who have departed, for the thing that departs

comes back; neither you are that, by my soul, nor I am that, by your soul.

Disbeliever, do not conceal disbelief in your soul, for I will recite

the secret of your destiny, by your soul.

Out of love of Sham-e Tabrizi, through wakefulness or

nightrising, like a spinning mote I am distraught, by your soul.
