1. All that the mind creates is hope
And what God creates is work

2. So know the difference between them
You will find it like the full moon in the darkness

3. And relating creation to the mind is like
What Jesus said, and it settled on the ear

4. This presence cannot be entered
Except by one who has separated from it, then returned

5. Glances with eyes that have shed
Abundant tears, the flood overwhelmed the universe

6. And the beginning of the matter is to witness Him
As One in all, bird or camel

7. Then neither bird nor anything here
Sun of constellations, whale and ram

8. He is this, so turn the eye and what
Is this, and in this be absorbed

9. A camel, all details are for Him
So realize and the details are the whole

10. My friend, for you from me is what
You can bear whenever the mind carries

11. So open the door and take the right
On a path in which one walks the sand

12. And all meanings are too limited
For Him, and the wound has not yet healed

13. Except that love finds you sometimes
In despair and sometimes in hope

14. And it has a limit, so whoever passes it
Reverses things and has faltered and leaned
