هو العظيم الذي علا شانُهُ

وقام بالكفتين ميزانُهُ

He is the Greatest, exalted is His glory

And the balance of justice is in His hands

وقد تثنت قدوده ورنت

عيونه واستمال إنسانُهُ

His arteries pulsated and His eyes shone

As He won over the hearts of mankind

ولم يزل واحداً وكثرته

ذيول أثوابه وأردانُهُ

He remained One though His manifestations were many

The trains of His robes and His standards

وكنت قرآنه بجمعي أنا

بل أنا مني بالفرق فرقانُهُ

I was His Quran though separate from Him

Rather, I am the Furqan from the Furqan

جلت عيون رأته في صور

قام عليها بالحق برهانُهُ

Eyes that saw Him in forms

Bore witness to Him through proof

وجل قلب درى بعزته

يقينه ملؤه وإيمانُهُ

And hearts that knew His might

Were filled with certainty and faith

ملأت منه يدي وليس بها

سواه إذ ما سواه ملآنُهُ

My hands are filled with Him and nothing else

For when other than Him fills, it is His filling

وماء حوض النبي راق لنا

ونحن أكوابه وكيزانُهُ

The water of the Prophet's pool was delicious to us

As we are its cups and goblets

تبارك الله حين صورني

صورته في وهي إحسانُهُ

Blessed is Allah when He created me

In His image, and that is His benevolence

وانتظمت بالوجود سُبْحَتُنا

في سلكه المستطيل سبحانُهُ

And our glorification was strung together

In the straight path, "Glory to Him"
