Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"Jadhlan" means one who is intensely joyful
"Laughing, secure, and arrogant*** as if he had obtained a covenant of safety"
It is as if the human being in this world, due to his long hope, has obtained a covenant of safety that he will not depart from it, even though the end is near
"Joy has clothed him in the finest garment*** which has driven away all worry and sorrow"
This means that he is delighted with the world and rejoices in it; it has driven away all his worries and sorrows. But in reality, it drives away worries and sorrows for a moment, and then the sorrows return. These pleasures are like a sedative; when its effect ends, the pain returns, and the pain returns more intensely. For this reason, the poet said, and he is truthful:
"There is no sweetness in life as long as it is spoiled*** by the remembrance of death and old age"
The end is either an early death or old age that brings a person to the state of infancy, and they grow weary of him, even his family, the most compassionate people toward him, grow weary of him. They feel pity for the child and carry him in their hands and on their shoulders. But old age is thrown on the ground like a worn-out garment; they do not care about it, they do not believe in it in any way, and they do not hope for it. He says:
"He struts in the garments of joy, forgetting*** what follows them: the garment of shrouds"
This means that you are now wearing clean, beautiful, and fine garments. Do you remember what? The garments of shrouds. Do you remember when you are wrapped in three folds, with no pocket containing provisions, no jewelry, and nothing from the world?
