1. We heard a talk like drops of dew
That renewed in the soul what it renewed

2. So it became refreshing for our hopes
And a place of rest for our pains

3. O Orient, do not despair
If today departs, watch for tomorrow

4. For how many troubles follow troubles
And pass quickly like the echo's return

5. So do not despair however the enemies say
Though their saying be as piercing as a spear's thrust

6. I entrust in you the treasures of knowledge
And the West walks to you to gain them

7. And prophets are sent in your land
And the West comes to you for guidance

8. And judges of misguidance decree upon you
To spend the long nights asleep

9. Do you suffer with a pact made with knowledge
So the weak through it become aided?

10. Whenever He wills, the worshipped reveals His secret
And attains from His running the goal

11. And if He wills, He brings the stars closer to Him
And confides to the galaxy and the Pleiades

12. And if He wills, He shakes the pinnacles of mountains
So they bow prostrate before His feet

13. And if He wills, He sees in an atom
Worlds no heedlessness has lived in

14. A time when winds are subjugated
And inanimate matter through it becomes a chanter

15. And nature inclines for the gnostics
With the meaning of existence and the secret of guidance

16. So when they address it, iron answers
And steam rises for them, facilitating

17. And flashes of electricity come to them
Lightning over the wire traversing the distance

18. After this and that, is it beautiful
That we be resigned and frozen?

19. And lo, the nation of zeroes has paved
The way for us, so vie in reaching the watering place

20. O youths, work
For the best of Egypt and become a hand

21. The hidden will show through you
Men who would sacrifice themselves for Egypt

22. I wish I knew which of you
When it calls will respond to the call

23. Yours, O Chosen One, is a young man
Of abundant helping and abundant number

24. When I praise you among men
You are worthy to be praised

25. The record of time will recount to you
Praise that makes immortal what is made immortal

26. And our sons will acclaim your name
When it is time for the harvest to be reaped
