The call of God, (whether it be) veiled or unveiled, bestows that which He bestowed on Mary from His bosom.
بانگ حق اندر حجاب و بیحجاب ** آن دهد کو داد مریم را ز جیب
O ye whom death (in your hearts) hath made naught underneath the skin, return from non-existence at the voice of the Friend!1935
ای فناتان نیست کرده زیر پوست ** باز گردید از عدم ز آواز دوست
Absolutely, indeed, that voice is from the King (God), though it be from the larynx of God's servant.
مطلق آن آواز خود از شه بود ** گر چه از حلقوم عبد الله بود
He (God) has said to him (the saint), “I am thy tongue and eye; I am thy senses and I am thy good pleasure and thy wrath.
گفته او را من زبان و چشم تو ** من حواس و من رضا و خشم تو
Go, for thou art (he of whom God saith), ‘By Me he hears and by Me he sees’: thou art the (Divine) consciousness (itself): what is the occasion (propriety) of (saying), ‘Thou art the possessor of the (Divine) consciousness’?
رو که بییسمع و بییبصر تویی ** سر تویی چه جای صاحب سر تویی
Since thou hast become, through bewilderment, ‘He that belongs to God,’ I am thine, for ‘God shall belong to him.’
چون شدی من کان لله از وله ** من ترا باشم که کان الله له
Sometimes I say to thee, ‘’Tis thou,’ sometimes, ‘’Tis I’: whatever I say, I am the Sun illuminating (all).1940
گه تویی گویم ترا گاهی منم ** هر چه گویم آفتاب روشنم
Wheresoever I shine forth from the lamp-niche of a breath (Divine word), there the difficulties of a (whole) world are resolved.
هر کجا تابم ز مشکات دمی ** حل شد آن جا مشکلات عالمی
The darkness which the (earthly) sun did not remove, through My breath that darkness becomes like bright morning.”
ظلمتی را کافتابش بر نداشت ** از دم ما گردد آن ظلمت چو چاشت
To an Adam He in His own person showed the (Divine) Names; to the rest He was revealing the Names by means of Adam.
آدمی را او به خویش اسما نمود ** دیگران را ز آدم اسما میگشود
