He destroyed ‘Ad and Pharaoh, along with

Thamud and the party of the "Battle of the Camel."

A group in the Heavens [the rebellious spirits] denied Him,

So they were purified by His peaked sword.

He returned to the Earth, surrounded by

Angels, while He was [throned] above the Clouds.

O friend! Seek the knowledge of salvation,

And the love of Ali; search, and ask!

You shall be safe from Metempsychosis (Maskh) and Transformation (Faskh),

In security, detached from the filth [of the material world].

For the Gnosis of the 'Ayn (Ali), the Mīm (Muhammad), and the Sīn (Salman),

And the Five Orphans, is the best of deeds.

From their love, I shall never depart,

For through them, I am preoccupied from all others.

And [I shall never depart] from the school of the Chosen Master,

Al-Husayn ibn Hamdan [al-Khasibi]; I shall never deviate.
