1. Existence of truth speaks through me
And all that comes to me and speaks

2. All is fleeting, His decrees
Like lightning in the darkness flickers

3. The creation, His speech of His will
The noble spirit brought into being for Him to behold

4. He has eternal speech within Himself
Ancient, with it the lands are admonished

5. Whoever is vexed by His command is ignorant
Of the Ruler, though by Him more vexed still

6. The command is God's knowledge in His dominion
The kingdom's ignorant one, He there awakes

7. So he remains blinded in blindness
From guidance, by base desires of the world obscured

8. God is greatest, how mighty our God
And most majestic in all that softens and hardens

9. Transcendent, sanctified above all
That minds can conceive and thoughts reflect

10. He who revealed to us His signs
And by His remembrance we are revived

11. To you, then, a youth whose trial is the form of His rule
Though sleeping, he is awake

12. Existence of truth always appears
Without beginning, so it is preserved
