2333-2342

  • Do not lay another nothing upon a nothing like this; do not put the name of ‘(worldly) fortune’ upon a torment like this.
  • Truly (the state of) ‘I possess nothing’ suits me better, since these hundred troubles arise from imagining that I possess (something).
  • Just in (the state where) I possess nothing do Thou act in sovereign fashion towards me. I have suffered pain: do Thou increase my pleasure. 2335
  • I will just stand naked in (a flood of) tears at Thy gate, since I have no sight.
  • Do Thou bestow on the tears of Thy sightless slave a verdure and vegetation from this (bountiful) pasture;
  • And if I leave no tears (in my eyes), do Thou give me tears (flowing abundantly) from an eye like the two streaming eyes of the Prophet.
  • Since he, with all that high fortune and majesty and pre-eminence, sought tears from the bounty of God,
  • How should not I, an empty-handed destitute lick-platter, spin fine webs of blood-stained tears? 2340
  • Inasmuch as an eye like that (of the Prophet) is enamoured of tears, it behoves my tears to be (like) a hundred great rivers.”
  • A single drop of those (tears) is better than these two hundred great rivers, for by that single drop mankind and the Jinn were saved.
