1. إنَّ الفروع لها أصل يولدها

    وهي الأصول لمن أيضاً تولده

    Indeed, branches have a root that begets them.

    And they are roots for those whom they, too, beget.

  2. الحقُّ أصل وجودي ثم معرفتي

    أصلٌ لعلمي به إن كنتَ تشهده

    The Real is the root of my existence; then my knowing

    Is the root of my knowledge of Him, if you witness Him.

  3. به أتانا رسول الله في خبر

    عكس الذي قال من بالفكر يجحده

    God’s Messenger brought us this in a report,

    Contrary to what the one who denies Him through thought has said.

  4. الله أنزه أن تُدرى حقيقته

    وأن يولده من كان يعبده

    God is too transcendent for His essence to be known,

    And for one who worships Him to beget Him.

  5. و إنما قلت ذا مما لنا وردت

    به النصوص التي للشرع تعضده

    And I said this only from what has reached us

    In the texts that uphold the sacred Law.

  6. إن تنصروا الله ينصركم ويشهدكم

    إصلاح من أنت تبغيه فتفسده

    If you support God, He will support you and let you witness

    The setting right of the one you seek and then corrupt.
