O you who wish to dwell in the Abodes,
Take care not to turn your back
Or disown what belongs to the Divine Secret!

Submit to what is assigned to you,
For this Secret never ceases to flow!
We have stripped ourselves of the adornments that weighed us down,
To immerse ourselves in the Divine Presence!

If the Lights burst forth,
If all other than Him passes away,
And if the Veils are lifted,
It is then that the Immanent Presence of God shines forth!

Hearts are consumed, set ablaze by the Desire to see the Beloved made manifest,
Without weariness or pain reaching them, so enamoured are they with Love!

The cups of wine that have gone round
Have made relief reign.
Then the Spirits longed to see the Face of God!

Among us there is one who moans
And whose eyelids are maimed,
This one has become absent in God!

Among us there is one who cries out,
In so doing, he points allusively to God!

Among us there is one who dances and has set aside
all that is outside of God,
Seeing him, you can only bear witness to the joy that carries him away
for having been so warmly welcomed!

And among them there is one who weeps with Love,
The Certainty of the meeting with God
Has left him thirsting for sweetness!

We are not mad,
We are only transcribing the Taste of annihilation in God,
Whoever savours it is counted among the Saints of God!

This Way cannot be grasped through words,
It cannot be apprehended through deeds,
For it is lived through the Inexhaustible Grace of God!

Hold fast to submission, for what we speak of is immense.
And none can come to know it,
except the one to whom God grants permission!

And may Your Prayers, O You the Clement, fill the Chosen One as well as the virtuous and all those who have become absent in God!
