Ask Those Who Have Got Knowledge Divine Poem by Mohammad Younus

Ask those who have got knowledge divine...
...what's this thinking person...
...the amalgam of soul and body?
By what command he inhales and exhales?
What voice in rhythmic tones he hears?
They will tell you in the words of the Quran:
The Spirit comes by command of my Lord;
Of knowledge it is only a little...
...that is communicated to you;
The Lord sits on the throne...
...and issues the command;
Who is the King on the throne, and...
...who are you that is commanded?

Give thanks to your creator...
...created you when nothing existed...
...from His command: Kun Fayakun!
And since we are actually nothing...
...whose are all these powers and riches...
...that we possess?
MyKoul knows that he is nothing...
...but the command of God...
...that He inspires in him since the First day;
The world won't last for ever...
...but my Truth will remain;
What are You, my Lord? What am I?
