1. In my solitude with the beauty of my beloved
Hidden from the sight of spies

2. My turning to him made me disappear in him
Prolonging my existence in annihilation

3. What lay beyond him became, when he came before me,
Behind me, my fore and my aft,

4. And I, when he seemed like me to me
Knew my prayer in calling upon him.

5. All directions took on equal relation to him
Though he is too sublime for space to contain

6. The sky showed me my earthly orientation
Bending the earth into orientation with the sky

7. Thus with him my ritual prayer consists In my kneeling, my prostration, and my upright stance.
