God is awake.

2. Or if you pass away,
The Truth remains.

Be gentle with the innocent.

4. Those who are confused in you
Are but innocent.

5. How can you be hidden
From the intimate?

6. In you the resolute
Are exalted.

Spoils have increased.

8. And in passion I have
Lost all dignity.

They are breezes.

10. You are a branch,
They are doves.

11. You are the sun,
They are clouds.

12. Without heads
Wearing turbans.

13. Every morning person
Sees you tranquil.

14. Every gaze
Is fixed on you.

15. Every love
Has signs of you.

16. You cannot be erased
By protective charms and spells.

17. The heart is fasting
From all but you.

18. It does not heed
Disapproving words.

19. In the seas of
Passion it is swimming.

20. Lightning of the
Beautiful one is striking.

21. It walks but
Without legs.

22. Its existence
Erased sins.

23. Its gentleness
Suits the youth.

24. Sometimes it resembles
The heavens.

25. Others upon its
Earth are blissful.

26. It is the Lord while
The rest are idols.
