We must hear and speak what is truth;
Hearing the truth fills the mind with truth,
That comes on the tongue as the true speech;
We speak a lie because we hear and see lie;
That pollutes our mind;
And so naturally evil words come on our tongues;
We must be lovers of the Truth:
Hearing, seeing, thinking, and speaking truth,
Is the true religion;
We must love the Truth and be afraid of untruth;
We must hear and see truth that goes to our mind;
And grows true thoughts there, and a true speech,
On our tongues is born;
He who has this secret known, he must peep,
Into his heart: the temple of the Truth!
Where there is peace, and tranquility and love;
We must take precautions in the darkness,
And go inside to see for ourselves the Truth;
Why this wild search afar, outside our hearts?
The Truth is in every heart: the essence of every soul;
If it is in the heart of Saint and sage, why not in you?
(Says MyKoul) the Truth is not far from any soul;
Without the presence of the Truth,
Man cannot be the vicegerent of God!
That explains the secret between Adam and God;
But everyone has not the eye to see the Truth;
I must say what comes to my heart from the Truth.
