Who measures the Creation with a stride;

He, who with splendour e’er the sun hath fed.

He, who from nothingness all matter drew;

He, who built up the universe on nought;

He, who round shoreless seas a girdle threw;

He, whose sole look forth light from darkness brought.

He, who no heed to Time’s progression gives;

He, who draws being from his own command;

Who, in the future as the present lives;

And recalls years, departed from his hand.
