1. O chanter of the unseen, remember the one whose love fills us
And sing us a poem to inspire us

2. And make this time sweet with noble love, for
We are dying, and the beloved's memory gives us life

3. Whenever we hear the meanings of his remembrance, our souls rejoice
And his lights shine within us

4. No hidden secret remains in our innermost being
And the mystery has made our apparent and hidden selves prosper

5. And every being in existence cries out to us
And every rod in our surroundings trembles

6. And the rattle of the angel of God rings out in rapture
And the flashes of the Most High have come to sing to us

7. So bring, O chanter of the unseen, your diverse arts
And call us so that the light may fill our caller

8. And say to the one with musky love: quench us
With the passions of ecstasy and send them to console us

9. And whenever the traces of our fervor subside
Stoke the fire of the mount of rapture to burn us

10. Do not fear any boredom from us, for we
In our steadfastness have built up our meanings through him

11. For though we perish, for we have lived according to his way
We will not change, for we have made his love our religion
