قومِ عیسٰ ابد اندر
دار و گیر
In the organization of
Christians
حاکمِ شاں دہ امیر و دو امیر
There were twelve (12) heads
ہر فریوے مرا میرے
را تبع
Every person was under a head
بندہ گشتہ میرِ خود را از طبع
Who was slave to his head because
of greed
ایں دہ و ویں دو
امیر و قومِ شاں
There twelve heads and their followers
گشتہ بندہ آں قزیرِ بدنشاں
Became the slave of that cunning
vizier
اِعتمادِ جملہ بر گفتارِ اُو
Everybody has faith in his
talks
اِقتدائے جملہ بر رفتارِ اُو
And they were followers of his
directions
پیشِ اُو در قوت و ساعت ہر امیر
A head can immediately before
him
جاں بدادے گربُد و گفتے کہ میر
Put his life, if he (vizier)
says so
چوں زبوں کرد آں جہودک جملہ را
When that crafty vizier has
everyone in his grip
فتنہ انگیخت از مکرد دَہا
Created a kayos amongst them
with his craftiness
In
the management of political affairs of Christians, there were twelve (12) heads
and each has his group of people, who followed him. Each group followed their
head because of getting benefit. These heads and their followers were become
the ardent supporters of that cunning vizier. They had belief in his talks and
obeyed his actions. The limit of slavery is that each head would give his life
if he asks for the same. When he (vizier) had everyone in his control and grip,
he started a new fracas amongst them, which is being narrated in the ensuing couplets.
