چوں بسے ابلیس آدم روئے ہست
There
are a number of satans in human faces
پس بہر دستے نشاید داد دست
Thus don’t give your hand to any hand (pledge)
زانکہ صیّاد آورد بانگِ صفیر
A
hunter used to call in birds’ language
تا فریبد مرغِ را آں مرغ گیر
To trap the birds in the garb of speech
بشنود آں مرغ بانگِ جنسِ خویش
The
bird listens to the voice of similar to it
از ہوا آید بیابد دام و نیش
And come down from top to find it a trap only
حرفِ درویشاں بدُزد دمردِ دوں
A
false person used to say the words of knowledgeable one
تا بخواند بر سلیمے زاں فسوں
So that he can trap someone simple fellow
The
difference between the researcher (محقّق)
& the braggard and between People of right and wrong
It
has been narrated above that sometimes right (حق)
and wrong (باطل) apparently looks same and hence there is
need to understand the difference between the same, so that a seeker should not
go to a false master due to error of judgment and by pledged (بیعت)
to such sheikhs, resulting in destroying his whole life. Therefore, it is
required to warn on this context in these couplets. Else we can say that it has
been narrated above that the senses required to identify the dubious/ ambiguous
issues be searched through a perfect sheikh i.e. in following Couplet 380 and hence
he states that do not make everyone the sheikh.:
صحّتِ آں حِسِّ بجوئید از حبیب
And thus We have
made for every prophet an enemy - devils from mankind and jinn, inspiring to
one another decorative speech in delusion.
Therefore,
one should not pledge to anybody before ascertaining the facts about him.
Giving an example, he says that the procedure of a hunter is to call the birds
in their own language and listening to the voice from their co-birds, the bird
comes down and get trapped. Similarly, the dubious people has a habit of posing
as dervish by uttering the words of dervish so that a simple person comes into
the effect of the words of these people (سلیم
also means a person bitten by snakes and using it along with افسوں
is the requirement of poetry) and the seekers after listening to these words and
speeches of these people believe them and get entrapped in deadly row and in
great error.
