Listen—
a song of Truth resounds,
not by tongue alone,
but by heart and soul,
awakening what sleeps within.
Hidden treasures of mystery
unveil their radiance;
from the echo of Be!
a world is born anew.
No harp, no lute—
only the music of creation:
leaves and branches humming
to the rhythm of the wind.
Clothed in earth and time,
His presence shines;
in every color,
His face is revealed.
This is the gift from
the Cupbearer of Kawthar—
love's wine poured freely,
giving thirsty hearts
a sip of eternity.
Beware—
the snares of the deceiving self
lie waiting;
yet the lamp of remembrance
burns to keep us safe.
Every particle of this universe
is witness to that ancient command;
each thing chants without ceasing
the hymn of His eternal praise.
