The sun adorned the sky, and away went

The river decorated the sky then disappeared

The sun has adorned the sky, and so have vanished

The darkness within it, and thunder and lightning.

With darkness, thunder, and lightning in it

The darknesses within it, along with thunder and lightning.

And light appeared from behind the dark clouds;

And light appeared from behind the disappearances

And light has emerged from behind the gloomy depths,

So there is no rain amid them today.

So there is no pounding in them today

So that today, no rain falls through the rifts.

And the sea appeared still without waves

The sea appeared still, save for the waves

Over which rose flocks of white birds.

Above it birds chirped loudly

Surmounted by flocks of birds, white and dappled.

And I see the snow has melted except what remains

And I see the snow has melted, except for remnants

With which the houses were crowned, leaving them piebald,

On the houses crowned so it is patched

With which the houses are crowned, appearing piebald.

Draping the hills in white robes,

Brides on the land wearing white dresses

Draping upon the hills vestments of white,

Beneath which blue under-robes appeared.

Under them blue folds appeared

Beneath which sheer blue tunics have appeared.

And behold, the earth is as fair as the sky;

And the earth is like the sky well-watered

And lo, the earth is like the sky in splendor;

There is no difference between sky and earth.

There is no difference between the sky and the earth

There is no difference between the heavens and the ground.

So the snows on earth seem clouds,

So it is as if the snow on the earth is clouds

It is as if the snows upon the earth were clouds,

And the meadows on earth seem a horizon.

And as if the meadows on earth are horizon

And as if the gardens on the earth were the horizon.

Such was the onset of clear weather: God’s painting,

That's how the drawing of God was at first wakeup

Thus was the first clearing of the weather, a design of God,

With beauty and depth in its coloring.

In its color beauty and depth

Possessing, in its hue, both beauty and depth.

My gaze was enraptured by it, and my heart surrendered,

I glanced at it and surrendered my heart

My gaze wandered therein, and my heart surrendered,

Acknowledging that God’s power is true.

Submissively believing God's power is truth

Acknowledging in submission that God's power is truth.
