読む› 巻 5› アヤズが、このとりなしの行為において自らを罪ある者とみなし、この罪を謝罪し、その謝罪の中でさえ自らを罪ある者とみなした話。そしてこの謙虚さは、王の知識と偉大さから生じるものであり、「私はあなた方の中で最も神を知り、最も神を畏れる者である」という言葉や、神の言葉「神の僕の中で神を畏れるのは知識ある者たちだけである」に繋がる。› 対句 4215
M5:4215 — مرگ آشامان ز عشقش زندهاند / دل ز جان و آب جان بر کندهاند
M5:4215
意味 · به زبانِ تو — あなたの言語 · AI
This couplet asserts that true life is found not in worldly existence or its sustenance, but in divine love, which transcends and even negates the fear of death.
This beyt appears in a section where Ayaz (the king's beloved servant) is interceding on behalf of others, yet feels himself a sinner for even daring to speak before the king's majesty. His 'sin' is a form of humility born from profound recognition of the king's greatness. In this context, the king represents God, and Ayaz's devotion mirrors the Sufi's love for the Divine. The preceding verses speak of 'the water of life' (āb-e ḥayvān) as a powerful, life-giving force for friends of God. However, this couplet elevates divine love even above āb-e ḥayvān. It suggests that those who are truly immersed in divine love are so detached from worldly life and its necessities (represented by 'life's water' and 'heart torn from life') that they embrace death willingly. This 'drinking death' is not annihilation but a transformation, where love itself becomes the source of an eternal, spiritual life, making them 'alive by His love.' It's a paradox: by letting go of the desire for earthly life, they attain a higher form of existence through divine connection.
