“نَحَنُ بشَوَاهِدِكَ نلُوذُ

وبِسَنَا عِزَّتِكَ نَسْتَضِئ

لِتُبْدِى لَنا مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَأْنِكَ

وأنْتَ الذِى فِى السَّماءِ عَرْشُكَ

وأَنْتَ الذِى فىِ السَّمَاءِ إلَه

وفِى الأرضِ إِلَه..

تَجَلَّى كَمَا تَشَاء

مِثْلَ تَجَلِّيكَ فىِ مَشِيئتِكَ كأَحْسنِ صُورَةٍ

والصُّورَةُ

هِىَ الرُّوحُ النَّاطِقَةُ

الذِى أفْرَدْتَهُ بالعلمِ (والبيَانِ) والقُدرَةِ

وهَؤَلاءَ عِبَادُكَ

قَدْ اجْتَمَعُوا لِقَتْلِى تَعَصُّباً لدِينكَ

وتَقَرُّباً إليْكَ

فاغْفرْ لَهُمْ !

فإنكَ لَوْ كَشَفْتَ لَهُمْ مَا كَشَفْتَ لِى

لما فَعَلُوا ما فَعلُوا

ولَوْ سَتَرْتَ عَنِّى مَا سَترْتَ عَنْهُمْ

لما لَقِيتُ مَا لَقِيتُ

فَلَكَ التَّقْديرُ فِيما تَفْعَلُ

ولَكَ التَّقْدِيرُ فيِما تُرِيدُ”

“أُقْتُلُوني يا ثقاتـــي إنّ في قتـْلي حياتــــي
و مماتـي في حياتـي و حياتي في مماتـي
أنّ عنـدي محْو ذاتـي من أجّل المكرمـات
و بقائـي في صفاتـي من قبيح السّيّئــات
سَئِمَتْ نفسـي حياتـي في الرسوم الباليـات
فاقتلونـي واحرقونـي بعظامـي الفانيــات
ثم مـرّوا برفاتـــي في القبور الدارسـات
تجدوا سـرّ حبيبــي في طوايا الباقيــات
إننـي شيـخ كبيــر في علوّ الدارجــات
ثم إنـّي صرتُ طفـلا في حجور المرضعات
ساكنـاً في لحد قبــر في أراضٍ سبَخــات
وَلدَتْ أُمّــي أباهـا أنَّ ذا من عجبـاتـي
فبناتـــي بَعْـدَ أنْ كـ ـن بناتـي أخواتــــي
ليس من فعل زمــان لا و لا فعل الزنــات
فاجمعوا الأجزاء جمعاً من جسـورٍ نيــرات
من هـواء ثم نــار ثم من ماء فـــرات
فازْرعوا الكلّ بأرض ٍ تـُرْبُها تـرب مـوات
وتعاهـدها بســقي من كـؤوس دائـرات
من جـوار ٍساقيـات و سـواق ٍجاريــات
فإذا أتممت سبعـــا أنبتـَتْ خير نبــات”
