1. Our Lord has come to us
In shades of clouds

2. And if we want, we can come to Him
If uncertainty leaves us

3. And the shades that He came with
Our substantial bodies

4. Shade us from His light
Lest there be annihilation

5. And they are vapors of nothingness
That arose from the mighty heavens

6. Four elements
Like what is in this station

7. The station of our world
That by its Lord is sustained

8. And its origin is that He
Is Living, All-Knowing, cannot be opposed

9. And He is Willing, Powerful
Pillars of creating the masses

10. As for the elite, He is the
Non-existence that endures

11. Like the example given in
This world we aspire to

12. Our Lord says about Himself
In a verse of speech

13. Its meaning an example is struck
So listen O honorable ones

14. And the highest example of Him
Is established on earth and in the heavens

15. So realize, my brothers
What I have said of the system

16. And explore through your Lord
Him, and taste this food

17. For its pulp once
Its rough husk is peeled away

18. Is a sublime time
That clears for you a cup of wine

19. And so you will know your Lord
From your own selves, not other people

20. And distinguish between Him
And you for all time

21. And you will know that He
Is true, all are obsessed with Him

22. And false are you, just as
The Exalted said, and peace
