Know ye not why we created
you all from the same dust
That no one should exalt himself
over the other
Ponder at all times in your heart
How ye were created
Ponder at all times in your heart
How ye were created

O man of two visions (x2)
Close one eye and open the other (x2)
Close one to the world

And open the other to the

O son of utterance
turn thy face unto mine
and renounce all save Me
for My sovereignty endureth
and my dominion perisheth not
if thou seekest another than me
if thou searchest the universe forevermore
thy quest will be in vain
thy quest will be in vain
