1. The world of speech, the world of breaths
The wine of meaning and words like cups

2. God's way with those who passed away, if
They knew Him through it, the senses are blurred

3. This, this is the truth, not what
Minds infer through imposition

4. Our leaders in truth preceded us, people
Who took root in it like firm mountains

5. So we drank from their nectar and quenched our thirst
And smelled their exhilarating breaths

6. The masters of religion stood by the Sharia
Not by understanding it or analogy

7. But by their Master, the Guardian in them
They worshipped Him plainly without confusion

8. For He is the Living and the worlds are dead
Claiming life through delusion

9. He is sheer existence and all else perishes
In Him a hint for the branch to the root

10. And if you and all are nothing
Tell me who you are, O son of mankind

11. You are His decree and depiction
In His preceding knowledge, and He's not forgetful

12. Then when the Truth spoke of
Knowledge, the consolations became clear

13. He is the Truth, and knowledge is truth, and in it
Is all this order among humankind

14. And so too speech is truth, and about it
You perish while its light cloaks you

15. So when He says "Be" and it becomes with existence
It's the saying of the Truth, severe and firm

16. You did not change from non-existence in
His knowledge, but remained obscured

17. No, nor did the Truth change from what
He was in it, by what consoles you

18. A non-existence apparent with existence's light
And existence through it in confusion
