And by him (al-Khasibi), may Allah be pleased with him:

Abel, O my Master!

Seth, O my Greatness!

Joseph, O my Beauty!

Joshua, O my Radiance!

Asaph, O my Brilliance!

Simeon, the light of my Purity!

And in Ali, I am Alawite

Rising to the Height of Heights.

And by him (al-Khasibi), may Allah be pleased with him:

He manifested in a person for mankind, so they likened Him To themselves, and did not truly realize Him.

If they knew of Him what I have come to know

In His true reality, they would have taken Him as God.

He was not hidden from the wise when

He brought forth miracles, so they declared His Oneness.

So I praise my Lord with much praise,

And I know of Him what they do not know.
