1. Guide to goodness and its news,
And guide at times to evil,

2. As a solace for seekers when
They revolt, seized without respite,

3. Reveal what his heart has harbored,
Neither narrow of scope nor breast,

4. Fulfilled with strength unfailing, folded up,
His limbs gathered and outspread,

5. Never weak though long imprisoned,
Through ages in captivity held.
