From elif and mim we gathered the secrets of the Koran
We mystified mim within se
From two dots and three letters (Ali) came ba
We mystified ba within se

We have become one with the divine essence
Show me the path, the truth my saint
We found devotion in a sea of profanity
Profanity became the truth within faith

Thirty three letters are the completion of the letters
From one elif and mim we have found ayn
From the prophet Seth we have gathered kaf and nun
We have fallen in love with the beloved within love

From those who have teached salvation came a sister
With a goblet of the divine wine of the forty saints in her hand
All kneeled before the sister
We called the sister shah within shah

They named the sister Fatima
They accepted the heavens and earth as present in he
Selman brought grapes and they were crushed
We were submerged in the water of the grapes within divinity

Virani speak your words wisely
Do not seek heights soar shallow
Be wise and gaze at the garden of your beloved
We have fallen for a rose within a rose

Those that are wise build and repair hearts
Our foes wonder in the sacred city as well
Those who are one with god find ecstasy in his light
The blind that look shout that we are insane

My soul has joined the rowof the desolate
With joy and sorrow in my heart
Sadik says this heart of mine endeavours to gaze at your divinty
For devotion is above all else
