He is the king, yet he is like a servitor to the weak. . The compassion that the world received from him,. None has ever experienced even from a mother. . He is intoxicated with the wine of the Beloved's love;. For His sake, he is so prostrate and humble. . His light reached out to every people,. And lit up every country. . For everyone with insight, he is the sign of the Gracious. God;. He is the proof of God for all who have eyes to see. . Out of compassion, he is the help of the helpless;. With his loving kindness, he shares the grief of the grief-stricken. . His countenance exceeds the sun and the moon in beauty;. The dust of his threshold is more fragrant than musk and ambergris. . How can the sun and the moon be like him?. In his heart shine hundreds of suns of divine light. . A single look at the beautiful one. Is better than eternal life. . I who am so well aware of his beauty,. Will give my very life, while others offer their hearts.
