    by one who attains: blessing and immense bounty!

    كَفه مشرباً روباً عَميما

    The spring for those who come to drink—how often there poured forth in plain sight

    from his hand a drink of curdled milk, ample for all!

    revelation and the Book descended long ago.

    فَهدانا بِها طَريقاً قَويما

    He effaced unbelief with spears and keen-edged swords,

    and so, through them, he guided us along a straight path.
