REFRAIN:
NUR MUHAMMAD NUR MUHAMMAD
NUR MUHAMMAD ILALLAH
NUR-UN ‘ALA NUR NUR-UN ‘ALA NUR
ALLAH ALI MUHAMMAD
THE ANGELS SPLIT MY BREAST
REMOVED MY HEART
CLEANSING ONE LAST DROP
OF HUMAN DARK
MAKING ME A VESSEL OF REVELATION
FILLED WITH RADIANCE FOR ALL THE WORLDS
(REFRAIN)
ALLAH IS THE EYE
BY WHICH I SEE
EIGHTEEN THOUSAND WORLDS
COME FORTH FROM ME
FOR I WAS A PROPHET FROM ETERNITY
BEFORE ADAM WAS WATER AND CLAY
(REFRAIN)
MY LORD A HIDDEN TREASURE
BRILLIANT OBSCURITY
LONGING TO BE KNOWN BY
MY LUMINOSITY
FOR I WAS A COLUMN OF PURE RADIANCE
BEFORE ANGELS CIRCLED THE THRONE
(REFRAIN)
MY NAME WAS INSCRIBED
BESIDE MY LORD’S NAME
BEFORE PROPHET ADAM
COMPREHENDED EVERY NAME
FROM MY TRUE LIGHT SHINES FORTH THE THRONE
ALL SOULS ARE EXPRESSIONS OF ME
(REFRAIN)
I FIRST RECEIVED QURAN
ON THE NIGHT OF POWER
I ENTERED DIVINE PRESENCE
CLOSER THAN TWO BOWS LENGTHS
I OFFERED YOU MY RIGHT HAND BENEATH THE TREE
NOW I ENTRUST YOU TO ALI
(REFRAIN)
I FLEW WITH HOLY GABRIEL
TO JERUSALEM
I LED THE PRAYER OF PROPHETS
ON THE ROCK OF ABRAHAM
ASCENDING I SAW ANGELS STANDING AND BOWING
SALAT COMES FIRST FOR THE DERVISH OF ALI
(REFRAIN)
I RODE WITH THE ARCHANGEL
THROUGH THE HEAVENS
I CROSSED THE ABSOLUTE
LIMIT OF CREATION
ENTERING THE ESSENCE
WHERE NO BEING IS
INTERCEDING FOR ALL THE WORLDS
(REFRAIN)
FOR YOUR SOUL ALLAH CRIED
I CREATED MY CREATION
FROM ARAFAT I CRIED
I COMPLETED YOUR RELIGION
I PLACED THE ROYAL SEAL ON PROPHECY
NUREDDIN JERRAHI IS ACTING FOR ME
(REFRAIN)
