Poem

What My Soul Poured

What I poured into the depths of my soul pleases my thoughts and hearing.
Zaynab: That is the light of heaven, the Revelation.
The Student: From thee the chant and recitation grow sweet.
Zaynab: The beauty is not mine—it is the Beautiful.
The Student: Ah, would that the Gospel were recited thus!
