The Mystery That Can Be Known Poem by Mohammad Younus

The mystery that can be known...
...is not the hidden and true mystery;
The mystery that can be named...
...is not the hidden and real mystery;
He who is the hidden mystery...
...is the Originator of seven heavens and earth...
...and whatever is in between them;
His manifestations can be given a name;
But He is nameless: who can give him any name?
He begets not, nor is he begotten!
He is the creator of all things!
He is his own manifestation!
Nothing is like or unlike him!
How can you compare him with anything...
...and give him a name?
He is the Exalted, and exists eternally!
He is not a body, jawhar, or accident!
He is not on a place or in a place!
Always He is a mystery that we must try to find!
Through meditation and contemplation, we can find but...
...that He is only the hidden mystery!
No one is able to find His deep mystery!
If we desire to know His mystery a little...
...we can see it within us...
...but not in its entirety!
Its outer fringe is all that we can see!
Under all circumstances, He is really the same mystery!
Mystery! Mystery! Mystery! Mystery!
As we understand some aspect of this mystery...
...we give it a name;
So we find different names given by mystics to the same reality!
The nameless still remains a hidden mystery!
His manifestations too are his mysteries;
Together we call them God - the Hidden Mystery!
You are the Mystery! The Universe is mystery!
The Truth is the mystery of every thing!
So I call the Truth by the name of the Hidden mystery.
