Line 1: Line 1:
By your glory, O my beloved, I became astonished at the manifestations of your craft and the revelations of your power. And I see myself incapable of knowing the least of your signs, and how to know yourself. Therefore, I ask You, O my God, by Your name with which You made lovers fly into the air of Your will and guided those longing for the pleasure of Your nearness and connection, to blow from Your good pleasure fragrances of reassurance upon those in distress among Your loved ones in those days when the winds of temptation surrounded them from all sides, so that souls were troubled from all sides. The power of Your decree, and the pillars of existence shook because of what descended upon them from the heavens of Your prestige, and their turmoil reached such a level that the lamps of Your love and remembrance almost extinguished in their hearts. And You are the Powerful over whatever You will, and You are the Forgiving, the Generous.
When the promise came and the appointed time was fulfilled, I moved the tail of the veil less than it could be counted. Then those in the tyranny of command and creation panic, except for those whom You created from the fire of Your love, the air of Your longing, the water of Your providence, and the dust of Your bounty. Those are prayed upon by the people of the Most High and the inhabitants of the cities of survival. Praise be to You, O my God, for having protected the monotheists, destroying the polytheists, and separating everything with another word, which came out of the mouth of Your will and appeared from the pen of Your will. With this, the servants of those who were created by the word of your command and were sent at your will objected to me, and they reached a position of turning away from disbelief in you and your signs and fought against yourself.

When the promise came and the appointed time was fulfilled, I moved the tail of the veil less than it could be counted. Then those in the tyranny of command and creation panic, except for those whom You created from the fire of Your love, the air of Your longing, the water of Your providence, and the dust of Your bounty. Those are prayed upon by the people of the Most High and the inhabitants of the cities of survival. Praise be to You, O my God, for having protected the monotheists, destroying the polytheists, and separating everything with another word, which came out of the mouth of Your will and appeared from the pen of Your will. With this, the servants of those who were created by the word of your command and were sent at your will objected to me, and they reached a position of turning away from disbelief in you and your signs and fought against yourself.
