1. Truth appears most truthful in life,
As we've known before this, unmatched.

2. This book astounds all minds
In its composition, captivates insight and steals away.

3. If some claim it merely narrates,
Humans will succeed if truthful.

4. Never shall its clarity be found
In another, though it speak.

5. Nor shall any youth come with some
Of its traits, even if an ocean in eloquence that splits.

6. This is the true saying, attended to
Beyond it, ink on paper.

7. Had Ptolemy witnessed its composition
Before Almagest, insomnia would not pull him.

8. Or had Pythagoras seen its beauty one day,
Shame would have sweated him.

9. Its refined meanings collected together,
And its beauties, their implications most exact.

10. The people of eras gazed upon it, enjoyed
I sought refuge for it from them and daybreak.

11. If before printing, it was delicate in
Its composition, no doubt, it is most delicate.

12. The hand of time has moved over it and announced
Good tidings, so its nature by nature flowed gently.
