You are my inward dimension and my outward aspect.

          I am not me. I am without I.

You are my absence and my presence.

          I am not me. I am without I.


Creation is but appearance; You are True Being.

          I am non-existent; You are existence.

You are the essence of my appearances.

          I am not me. I am without I.


To me You are the shadow and radiance.

          To me You are the rose and the garden.

To me You are both the viewer and the viewed.

          I am not me. I am without I.


Non-being gained existence through You.

          An entire world became drunk through You.

You are my wine and pitcher.

          I am not me. I am without I.


You are my wrath and my affection.

          You are my darkness and my light.

To me You are the unbeliever as well as the believer.

          I am not me. I am without I.


In my head resides desire for You.

          My heart’s retreat is Your dwelling.

You are my observer and my concealer.

          I am not me. I am without I.


O You who brings joy to me,

          my sun and light bestower,

You are my clear sign:

          I am not me. I am without I.
