[Sunlight] "You who have filled the world"

~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hidden One, You who've filled the world
from East to West with Your radiance
and are exalted above the light of the Orient and the Occident,
You are the inmost Ground of Consciousness
revealing our inmost thoughts,
You are the explosive Force
that causes our dammed-up rivers to surge forth.

Yâ Khafîyan qad mala'ta al-Khâfiqayn
qad `alawta fawqa nûr al-Mashriqayn
Anta Sirrun kâshifu asrâranâ
Anta fajrun mufajjiru anhâranâ

-- Mathnawi V:3308-3309
