Unveiling herself revealed (from The Poem of the Sufi Way)
Unveiling herself revealed existence to my eye, so in everything seen I perceived her.
My attribute is hers since we are not called two; her shape is mine since we are one.
If she is called, it is I who answers; when I am summoned, she replies and obeys the one who calls me.
If she speaks, it is I who whispers; when I tell a tale she is the one who tells it.
For the second person's sign became the first between us, and so my rank is high above all who cling to difference.
