O Radiance Poem by Mystic Qalandar

O inner light,
secret of the narcissus hidden in the sun,
awakening of my soul,
fragrance of life's garden
folded within you—
you are that secret melody
unveiled from a thousand veils of shadow,
once lost to me
in the mirages of the world.
Yet within you lies the same truth
that echoed on the Day of Alast.

O Radiance—
my boundless triumph,
shimmering rhythm of my eyes;
through your light I have known
my true self—
that formless essence
freed from the husk of dust—
and my Lord
whispers to the depths of my heart
without cease.

I am not lost,
nor halted
upon the wounded path of the world;
your nearness has kindled
the light of authenticity within me.
Amid oceans of defiance
I have tasted the sweetness of ecstasy,
speaking the quiet language of patience.

O Radiance—
my sword, my shield;
within your gaze rest
the hidden secrets of the Preserved Tablet.
The heights of the Throne are not my goal—
the depth of servitude is my destination:
harmony with the divine secret,
returning to my origin.
To bloom like a flower's first breath,
and in the seed's truth
to unveil the Real.

O Radiance—
my fearless companion,
voice that resounds
through the ocean of silence—
you teach me
the whispers of wings,
the turmoil of waves,
the burning of mountains by night.

You alone
soften the soul of stone,
conquer the storms
bound within my disguise
with the laughter of love.
You bury
my deceits, doubts, and fears;
and I stand
beneath the blazing sun of resolve
to bear the weight of trust—
with a luminous conscience.
