I am born in the world as a new sun, I have not learned the ways and fashions of the sky: Not yet have the stars fled before my splendour, Not yet is my quicksilver astir; Untouched is the sea by my dancing rays, 25 Untouched are the mountains by my crimson hue. The eye of existence is not familiar with me; I rise trembling, afraid to show myself. From the East my dawn arrived and routed Night, A fresh dew settled on the rose of the world. 30 I am waiting for the votaries that rise at dawn: Oh, happy they who shall worship my fire! I have no need of the ear of To-day, I am the voice of the poet of To-morrow.

My own age does not understand my deep meanings, My Joseph is not for this market. I despair of my old companions,
Their sea is silent, like dew, But my dew is storm-ridden, like the ocean. My song is of another world than theirs: This bell calls other travellers to take the road. How many a poet after his death Opened our eyes when his own were closed, And journeyed forth again from nothingness When roses blossomed o’er the earth of his grave! Albeit caravans have passed through this desert, They passed, as a camel steps, with little sound.

But I am a lover: loud crying is my faith:
My song exceeds the range of the chord, Yet I do not fear that my lute will break. ’Twere better for the waterdrop not to know my torrent, Whose fury should rather madden the sea. No river will contain my Omán: My flood requires whole seas to hold it. Unless the bud expand into a bed of roses, It is unworthy of my spring-cloud's bounty. Lightnings slumber within my soul, I sweep over mountain and plain. Wrestle with my sea, if thou art a plain

Receive my lightning, if thou art a Sinai. The Fountain of Life hath been given me to drink, I have been made an adept of the mystery of Life. The speck of dust was vitalized by my burning song:
No one hath told the secret which I will tell Or threaded a pearl of thought like mine. Come, if thou would’st know the secret of everlasting life! Come, if thou would’st win both earth and heaven! The old Guru of the Sky taught me this lore, I cannot hide it from my comrades. O Saki! arise and pour wine into the cup

I have seen the movement of the sinews of the sky, And the blood coursing in the veins of the moon. Many a night I wept for Man's sake That I might tear the veil from Life's mysteries, And extract the secret of Life's constitution From the laboratory of phenomena. I who give beauty to this night, like the moon, Am as dust in devotion to the pure Faith A Faith renowned in hill and dale, Which kindles in men's hearts a flame of undying song: It sowed an atom and reaped a sun It harvested a hundred poets like Rúmí and Attar. I am a I will mount to the heavens; I am a breath, yet am I sprung of fire.

My being was as an unfinished statue, Uncomely, worthless, good for nothing. Love chiselled me: I became a man And gained knowledge of the nature of the universe.
