لم يأتِ غيري بمثل قولي

فكلُّ ما قلت عنه قلته

None has brought the like of my words,

For all I have said of it, I have said it.

لا بل هو العينُ من وجودي

فحيثُ ما كان ثم كنتهْ

Nay, it is the very essence of my existence,

Wherever it was, there I was.

حقاً فما في الوجود غير

تراه عيني إذا شهدته

In truth, there is naught in existence

Except what mine eyes see when they regard it.

والله لولا وجود لولا

ما جهل الخلق ما أردته

By God, were it not for existence, were it not

For creation's ignorance of what I intended.
