The Four Valleys - Third (Jabarút, Divinity)

How can utter nothingness arise?

And claim to understand

Unless it be assisted

By the heaven of His command

The sincere have been commanded

To seek out hidden things

Unraveling the mysteries

The wonders that it brings

When we have understood these things

We must arise anew

Manifest them in the world

As we are commanded to do

O my Most Glorious Companion

Restore my joy and ecstasy

Give me peace which enkindles

The signal fires in the hearts

Burning to light what is abhorrent

Cleansing the realm of being

That spirits may shine

As they enter paradise

Why would we seek a separate life

When one is what is needed?

We were meant to sing as one

Setting the world ablaze

Command and dominion are one

One must their servants be

A flock a choir a concourse

What differences could one see

Spreading our wings at His Command

We plunge and soar together

What force could ever thwart

Such a heavenly host

 The command of God is for His chosen ones

On whom shall come no harm

Peace and understanding

Illuminates their souls

Eternity is their homeland

Being left behind

From the hollow of His Hand

They move at His Command

 Am I one or two or four

Or maybe even more

Plurality is gone from me

One is all that I can see

 O Lord! Let us enter thy kingdom

Let us graze in its pastures

Let us drink from its immortal fountains

Let us partake of its wondrous fruits

Let us hear the warble of its birds

Surround us with its divine fragrances

Let us sing anthems in its choirs

Let us rejoice the hearts of all creation

Let us spread our wings and rise

Above names and attributes

Confirm us by Thy command

In Thy vast dominion

Where the unknown is added to the unseen

The realm of undifferentiated reality

Where secrets are concealed

Where treasures are hidden

Where the depths are not plumbed

Where the seas are not spanned

Where freedom is bestowed

Let us enkindle fires in the souls of men

Let us set the world ablaze

Let the smoke rise

Swim through the surging seas of the heart

Till you reach the other side

Never stop or turn away

Never try to hide

Reach the crimson shore

Of that snow white strand

Rise then and walk

Into the promised land

Graze in the fields of eternity

Perfection everywhere

The hosts of command will never allow

Negativity to be there

Their ever cleansing fires

Keep unhappiness away

Listen to their choirs

Hear the words they say

 Thunder bolts from the kingdom

Like a trace of the traceless friend

Open the eyes of seekers

So that mercies may descend

Heat from the fire of command

Burns in the lover’s heart

Making light for all the world

So unity may start

Thunder bolts from the kingdom

Like a trace of the traceless friend

Open the eyes of seekers

So that mercies may descend

Heat from the fire of command

Burns in the lover’s heart

Making light for all the world

So unity may start
