1. O Possessor of the divine Reality, no rightful due

    of divinity has escaped Your perfection.

  2. You possess intrinsic self-sufficiency, O absolutely Self-Sufficient One,

    with no prior need preceding Your possession.

  3. You brought the signs of existence into being; their celestial sphere is

    a proof of God’s existence and creative power.

  4. You possess that which is indispensable in itself:

    intrinsic necessity with respect to the attributes.

  5. You possess absolute, everlasting perfection in

    Your attributes and Names, at every rank.

  6. Your existence entails the realization of realities,

    as required by bringing the knowledge of Reality into being.

  7. And in the facets of the Names, that which You find through it

    has manifested in the stations of witnessing.

  8. So grant me, through the mysteries of what You possess,

    what I lack of every lofty portion.

  9. I am the destitute one, desperately needing all that benefits me,

    as my poverty and servitude require.

  10. And insofar as I apprehend Your existence, I possess

    riches in what I hope for from the gate toward which I turn.

  11. Let me attain realization, ecstasy, and a rank—

    a share in my faith and in my worldly life.

Sol 5.6
