Uh-uh, my beloved! How do I remember what I see of your actions and affairs? Once upon a time, I witness that you took the pen of the one who was like me with the fingertips of your mercy and made it the companion of your soul and the companion of your beauty, and you take it with the fingers of your glory and your pride, and from it flow the seas of the animal, from which, by a drop of it, you sent the realities of possibility and the hearts of the people of the universes, and from its creak you attracted the hearts of the close ones and the hearts of the sincere. Once upon a time, I see that you afflicted me with the fingertips of the polytheists and made me subjugated under their fingers, and the hearts of the people of the Most High became disturbed in me, then the inhabitants of the cities of survival, and the livers of those whose faces you honored from turning to others and sanctified them from the signs of the people of your land and sought nearness in the shade of your care and bounty. By Your might, I fear that whoever disobeys me, the pen of Your command will cease and the tablets of Your judgment and [244] the sheets of Your decree will cease. I wish I had not existed and had not been mentioned.
And that this oppressed one has stood up for the debtor of your justice and mercy, and that this poor one has clung to the tail of your singing, and that this deprived has taken shelter under the shade of your holiness and kindness. I ask you in your name, by which you broke the idols of illusion and desire, and adorned those close to you by taking off your gratitude and forgiveness, and removed from the polytheists the mantle of your names and kindness, by sending down from the clouds of your power and the heavens of your bounty that which calms my heart and reassures my soul. So oh oh, my beloved, then turmoil and turmoil overtook me when the throne of your chosen name settled down, because if you torment the oppressor who wronged me for the duration of your kingdom and your kingdom, my soul will not rejoice in that[245] and my loneliness will not go away and my turmoil and turmoil will not calm down. Because my face, O my God, is yellow from my shame at what has appeared from me, and this is from the fragrance that will not go away from me, even if the winds of Your forgiveness blow on me from the right hand of Your forgiveness. So do you see, O my beloved, a loser who loses from me or a humiliated one who is humiliated by me?

And that this oppressed one has stood up for the debtor of your justice and mercy, and that this poor one has clung to the tail of your singing, and that this deprived has taken shelter under the shade of your holiness and kindness. I ask you in your name, by which you broke the idols of illusion and desire, and adorned those close to you by taking off your gratitude and forgiveness, and removed from the polytheists the mantle of your names and kindness, by sending down from the clouds of your power and the heavens of your bounty that which calms my heart and reassures my soul. So oh oh, my beloved, then turmoil and turmoil overtook me when the throne of your chosen name settled down, because if you torment the oppressor who wronged me for the duration of your kingdom and your kingdom, my soul will not rejoice in that[245] and my loneliness will not go away and my turmoil and turmoil will not calm down. Because my face, O my God, is yellow from my shame at what has appeared from me, and this is from the fragrance that will not go away from me, even if the winds of Your forgiveness blow on me from the right hand of Your forgiveness. So do you see, O my beloved, a loser who loses from me or a humiliated one who is humiliated by me?
