1. We are with Him, nor are we apart,
We are no word, no meaning have we.

2. We all are but one thing, that is certain,
A hint, or less, as some bow signify.

3. By truth existent we existed too,
Mere dreams on fantasy, we were not true.

4. Like snow we melt in water at His look
When unto us His essence is made known.

5. His attributes all back to His essence lead,
Since there is no third thing, nor twain indeed.

6. O Absolute Oneness, what thing is there
Upon Thy being to be said or known?

7. By utter nothingness Thou art enclosed
As Thou Thyself to us hast disclosed.

8. We have no saying, and no sayers are,
We see no fear, no safety do we ken.

9. And at His names we have made halt, and ceased,
So by no profit we were increased.

10. And whatsoever by them we expressed
Secretly shared belief will straight destroy.

11. And of His Essence we have no knowledge,
Either denial or confession showeth.

12. Presence nor absence can we claim to find,
We've lost all thought of front and base behind.

13. This, of His knowledge, is the madness known
To whom in Truth's path madness has grown.

14. O son, say not 'two' having said the 'One',
Or who makes one with Being will rue.

15. What I have spoken, reason cannot know,
How should a rational mind perceive it so!
