1. He is the origin, the essence from which excellence springs
While all others are but offshoots and tributaries

2. The secret meaning, the very eye of existence is he
The eye and source of life, an endless font

3. With witnessing filled, his heart is ever pure
In him all wisdom and guidance based

4. Witnessing the Truth, eyes lowered in awe
Made tranquil, submissive in his grace

5. Exalted be his favor and gifts upon us
His name lifted high, spoken with praise

6. Our hearts know him, thus certain we remain
He is the intercessor, the messenger we seek

7. Dealing with all gently, mercifully inclined
Master obeyed, obedient guide sublime

8. In him accustomed we are to patience and care
A fortress against trials, sturdy and firm

9. Bestowing gifts and kindness over all realms
His heart ever open, though wounded and torn

10. Curing us with his memory, singing his praises
He is the swift remedy, the healing we yearn
