1. O soulmate of my soul that remains in me,
May my tears quench your thirst in you, my anguish.

2. And o my innermost being, melt in grief and burn in sorrow,
And o my sigh, increase your flames with my torment.

3. And o my liver, find rest for yourself,
Lest you melt in the shadow of my dwelling.

4. And o my health, I am infatuated with joining you,
So to me, joining you is to become my calamity.

5. And o my fine patience, depart from my landmarks
And be solace for me from afar and my comfort.

6. And o eye, spread hot tears
And have mercy on me with bright visions.

7. And o gatherer of sorrows with longing, leave me be,
And o heart, after my innermost being, be far away.

8. There is no good in a heart that is fickle,
Nor any good in what grieved my remainder.

9. The fire of passion has risen from my wings,
It melted the tenderness of my ribs, so they are no longer tender.

10. Terrors have erased my identity, my essence,
My personality, my body, then my shadow and experience.

11. And nothing remains but a sigh, if I let it out,
It would return as poisons that burn every breath.

12. And after it, everyone who returns to me
Returns with the illusion of metaphor, not the illusion of truth.

13. And I returned with a soul that struggled in its ordeal,
So it turned away when it turned.

14. You see its superiority in its essence as you see
Its equal when you compare it to nature.

15. So its definition in itself is not implicit
Nor hidden, for it surpassed the person.

16. You see its effects through its traits
So it rings of a meaning with a hidden secret.

17. You see them with an idle body, not bearing
Its burdens, for it has unloaded.

18. And if the body's load was bearing for the soul,
And the soul’s assets were made ready in it.

19. Its action would not be more in need of its supporter
A doctor healing every disease from both.

20. Nor would its status be more in need of its disunity
For an honorable resurrection from lofty structures.

21. To end dispersed pains from its misery
It has spread the disease of the misguided tyrants.

22. A God has come to it from above the Throne approaching
Embodying the human form, loving creation.

23. He came to it while it was blinded
So He compensated it with a healthy eye.

24. He came while the abundance of sin on earth was teeming,
Breaking ships like solid fortresses.

25. You see people like two armies in the stance of strife
And each drives the soul towards death.

26. Upon them the darkness of night under a covering
On twisted paths like the dawn or the evening.

27. He came to them as a humble submitting embodied Lord
And divinity concealed humanity of human skin.

28. And He began saying the truth while the truth is clear
With the lights of the effects of the manifest sciences.

29. I was truly before the before in My eternity
And I am after the after in My perpetuity.

30. I was before the earth when it was murky
And I folded the heavens in the volume of My fold.

31. I was before the darkness and its light
And before the spirits of the radiant gardens.

32. I was before the splitting of the heavens and
Above it and before the earth before origination.

33. I was truly before the sprouting of any plant
And before the appearance of any flower or fruit.

34. I was before the rising sun at dawn
And before the moon rose in the night’s darkness.

35. I was before all the planets
Standing and revolving under the obedience of My wisdom.

36. I was before the universe and the universe is created
By My command and before the solid foundations.

37. I was truly before the creation of Adam
And by Me and by My command the creation of mankind was.

38. I was in Paradise decreeing and Adam
Wandering in the robe of security in every direction.

39. I was when he went astray confused by his ignorance
And was expelled from it dragging the tail of shame.

40. I was with Enoch when he ascended to heaven
By My command for the requirement of the divine will.

41. I was with Noah at the flood of his waters
Protecting him inside the ark from the torrential rain.

42. I was with Abraham while he was emigrating
Obedient to My command towards a foreign land.

43. I was with Isaac on the day of his sacrifice
And I ransomed him with the ram, meaning with the human skin.

44. I was with Jacob on the day of his fear
And I scattered sustenance from him in every place.

45. I was with Joseph in prison informing him
And he only succeeded by my endowment in assuming authority.

46. I was with Job on the day of his trial
And compensated him multiples for every affliction.

47. I was with Moses in Egypt empowering him
With the banners of My signs that were revealed to him.

48. I was with My people in a strange land
And delivered them from their captivity with evidence.

49. I was with them while crossing the sea travelling
On foot as if walking on the surface of land.

50. I was with them while on land travelling
Shading them from the heat of the midday sun.

51. I was with them every pitching of their journey
And lodging of their travel with a shining fire.

52. I was with them when the enemies had conquered them
And I quenched their thirst with the cup of death that pleased them.

53. I was truly with Joshua in his war
And reversing the course of the sun was easier than My Power.

54. I was with David in his time of distress
And he did not fear dangers except through My protection.

55. I was most enamored with Solomon
And he did not judge the people except by My wisdom.

56. I was with Jonah in the sea stable
And I was with him inside the whale with My strength.

57. I was with Daniel in the den residing
And held back the lion’s roar from him with My dominion.

58. I was with Elijah and the rain poured
And the idols were not defeated except by My prayer.

59. I was with the youths of Babylon protecting
Them from the harm of the blazing inferno.

60. I was with all the prophets guiding
And when I renewed the promise, I came with My blessing.

61. I was truly in the womb of the virgin Mary
For nine months in number.

62. I was sleeping in the manger of the cave
And My human birth was in Bethlehem.

63. I was in the pulpit of Solomon ascending
At the age of six years and six.

64. I was when I began debating as a boy
And confounded the experts of knowledge.

65. I was in Cana of Galilee and the bride of Cana
I made the water into good wine.

66. I was the healer of the blind man in Siloam
I healed for him a pupil from clay.

67. I was truly healing the illness of one thought afflicted
And left him the most honorable of natures.

68. I was in the desert of barren land
And satisfied thousands with crumbs of bread.

69. I was among the crowds when a woman touched the edge of my robe
And she obtained the cure of her hemorrhage.

70. I was when they brought a paralyzed man
And I said to him “Be well” by My command.

71. I was in Zion when I was expelling
The devils openly from the Magdalene.

72. I was truly over the well of Sychar
In Samaria revealing the secrecy of the Samaritan woman.

73. I was over the sea and the sea was teeming
As if I was walking over sturdy land.

74. I was on Mount Tabor residing
On its slopes and the light had covered my companions.

75. I was for Lazarus on Saturday standing up
And he had been dead for four days.

76. I was in the outskirts of Zion wandering
And the boys sang praise with their mouths.

77. I was washing the feet of the disciples
After supper, desiring affection.

78. I was when I sanctified bread and wine
So it truly became My blood and the essence of My nature.

79. I was truly in the mortal body of Adam standing
With his burdens so I could show him My merit.

80. Truly, the Christ suffered for supporting us
And His embodiment was true for us.

81. The minds were perplexed by the mystery of His ascension
And His clear miracle was revealed to us.

82. The people went astray in the secret of His humanity
Since the eminent scholars related it.

83. So one says decisively, determinedly, and ardently
And one says falsely with corrupt doctrine.

84. The disbelievers thus denied His sublime humanity
And insisted on it like the incomprehensible tongues.

85. And the Jews conceded His coming
But they said humanity of mortal skin.

86. As for the people of the Christian religion, they
Debated about it in circle after circle.

87. So Severus the miserable and his party,
The people of magic, lies, vileness, and treachery, said

88. That Jesus was in body like us
And not God but similar in miracle.

89. Likewise Simeon the shoemaker says in his words
While he claims virtue in his writings.

90. And Mani said His body was visible
An illusion, and did not taste death.

91. And at the time of death on the day of crucifixion
He made it appear, and this view is filled with suspicion.

92. Arius said his body was from the heavens
And did not take it from a pure virgin.

93. And the accursed Aries openly denies
His equality to the Lord of creation.

94. And Nestorius strayed from Him in his saying
Two hypostases in Him with dual nature.

95. And Severus rules that the two natures
Of Jesus mingled like water and wine.

96. And they became after that a single nature
Unified, so beware his misguidance that.

97. Likewise Theodosius the submerged one is a follower
Of what its text states but union of the case.

98. And Barsuma with Jacob strayed and were hypocritical
And their despicable hypocrisy with some followers.

99. And Sarkis and his supporters were saying
Misguidance and deception that he has a will.

100. And Henanaeus, the transmitters disagreed about him
So some opposed others in the report.

101. But my view of him is truthfully that he
Is correct in meaning, straight in doctrine.

102. And others who tyrannized and ruled
And strayed from the straight path and method.

103. They have all fallen into the abyss of blasphemy
And followed the path of the misguided tyrants.

104. They have no savior in their rejection
Nor evidence in their imposition.

105. Upon them from the Exalted God, a thousand curses
Multiplied in enumeration to a thousand curses.

106. As for the people of correct opinion, with which
They saw the vision of harmony in every aspect.

107. They limit knowing the doctrine that it
Is conveyed from the eminent imams.

108. They say that the Christ son of Mary
And son of God since the tidings of the virginity.

109. And they united the hypostasis in Him with their text
And doubled nature with the duality of will.

110. So His divinity is united and He is perfect
In His humanity without mixing and blending.

111. You see their hypostatic union in reality
Not a union of agreed affection.

112. Until you see the hypostasis in both of them
Has requirement by union of truth.

113. This is the clear honest truth by which
Hopes have clung to Him and so explained.

114. And the consensus in East and West called Him
With clear signs and honesty of evidence.

115. Supporting views for it from prominent ones
Solidly transmitted, not weak.

116. Trustworthy ones to whom the adversary nods
A sign of concession to them in association.

117. Supporting them is the comforter in His saying
"Be strong, I am with you" in every argument.

118. Upon their guidance we build the foundations of our religion
As the temple was built on the Gospel.

119. If the Torah of the Kalim prophesied
About the coming of our Redeemer and stated,

120. His glorious actions and transcendent knowledge
And the merit of the reason are stated in His Gospel.

121. Ask His messengers, they inform you plainly
In recording His words in truth.

122. They disseminate what torment He received
And how much that body endured of every affliction.

123. So it was a prayer he performed in the garden
To ascend Adam above the garden.

124. And his stripping was indicating to Adam
To silk covering him from the light of bliss.

125. And the piercing of the skin in the tenderness of His skin
Indicated the robe of glory and grace.

126. And crowning Him with thorns announcing
The crowning of Adam above the throne of joy.

127. And blackening Him with myrrh in his crucifixion
To raise him above the highest rank.

128. The horizons grieved and feared
For the crucifixion of Jesus, Lord of all creatures.

129. You see the darkening of the sun a great burning
As the eclipsing of the moon a most unfortunate eclipse.

130. And the planets roamed the earth and sky
And the troop of sorrow descended upon every group.

131. When He was present in the mortal flesh appearing
And declared among the people in shame.

132. The blessed cross certainly bore fruit
A cluster whose fire burned for us intensely.

133. So if Adam was harmed by eating fruit
And was expelled from the most comfortable land.

134. The harvesters of success reap the fruits this day triumphant
So they were honored with a fruit more aromatic.

135. For if steps were lost from eating the fruit
The distance was illuminated from picking the origin of the fruit.

136. Come for you have been saved, O primal Adam
And you were invited to the wedding of Paradise.

137. Congratulations on what you gained from a savior
And you did not cry for what you earned.

138. And drink for your soul that your Lord returned to you
And pasture for it when it transcended.

139. It sees knowledge in its essence like a seal
And that which it needs was like it.

140. So now in it the expression is safe
And its return has returned it in union.

141. And its status with its action is safe
As its affair when at the cause.

142. It absolves it from an implicitness that was ambiguous
And supports it in an appearance like rays.

143. So marvel at its voices during its singing
It expresses a hidden meaning with subtlety.

144. And it struts from the joy of virtue and devotion
As the beauties swaggered in clothes of bliss.

145. And it glimpses the effects of salvation in itself
And its banner above the formidable fortresses.

146. You see around it every hardened anger
With spears and rods burning tongues.

147. Repelling the poison of death from the side of its humanity
So neither human nor spirit of heaven resent it.

148. The tongues of universes praise its action
And eulogize it in eloquent introductions.

149. For its elevation did not resemble condescension
Nor a stumbling in the pagan era.

150. Deception did not delude it in validated text
Unlike compelling words without distinction.

151. But it stood with sincerity on piety
With the trinity of the hypostasis of One God in unity.

152. And it diverged in His essence drawing
Its brightness, though it reached in love.

153. So it returned as God willed, safe
Safe with the innocence, not the opposite of safe.

154. And He gifted it from His treasure every grace
And it inherited the most noble rank.

155. Upon it from the lights is an embroidered gown
Followed by a belt of manna in every fold.

156. And it was infatuated with itself while under it
You see Him above it above the throne.

157. It was perplexed by Him, unaware of a world unlike knowledge,
By what it learned after adversity.

158. So it remained in security, comfort, bliss
And attainment, blessing, joy, and elation.

159. And the praise of the virgin Mary overwhelmed it
And the extent of praising the virgin overwhelmed it.

160. She transcended in the perfection of grace the greatest rank
And the girl of poverty attained the greatest blessing.

161. Did the greatest blessing descend to her?
Or did God make her worthy of the most noble rank?

162. That is because He resided in her comforting
And she accepted Him as the first of creation.

163. So when He saw in her humility and chastity
He penetrated her to take on the nature.

164. To whom do I see but to the humble
Says the God of all in prophecy?

165. Her humility became the elevation of her praise
So too her transcendence became the elevation of my praise.
